FILM COLLECTION
BRIDESHEAD REVISITED
We find ourselves in England at the end of World War II, where General Charles Ryder (Jeremy Irons) is stationed with his unit on the Brideshead Estate. The property has been abandoned long ago, but it is not the first time that he’s been here. He recalls his earlier experience at Brideshead with the son of the manor, Sebastian, and his sister, Julia, in the lead roles. Which one of the two had he preferred more and why does Catholicism play such a huge role in the film?
The film dates back to a time when real men wore shirts, sweaters and tweed jackets.
Director: Julian Jarrold
Year of Release: 1981
Music: Geoffrey Burgon
