For anyone who hasn't seen the movie based on the novel, I would highly recommending watching it[0]. Superb, nuanced performances by Sir Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson. The movie would also serve as an introduction to the Merchant-Ivory oeuvre[1].

- aws_ls 9y agoYesterday, after I heard this news, I searched for this movie as an entry point to his works, with the hope of later reading a book by him. Unfortunately could not find the movie anywhere (YouTube has some bad versions). If anyone has any pointers, to where we can find it online, would be good.
- twoodfin 9y agoFor free? Amazon and iTunes both have it available for rent / purchase. Well-worth the money. It’s stunningly produced, faithful to the novel, and both Hopkins and Thompson are outstanding.
- aws_ls 9y agoNo not for free, of course. But streaming which I can purchase. Don't have iTunes, but have 3 services (Netflix, Amazon Prime and HotStar) in India. None of them seem to have it. Ideally, I want to be able to just buy a movie from somewhere, without needing to subscribe to the entire service.
