Howards End
DramaRomance142 min
In Edwardian England, Margaret Schlegel and her sister Helen find their lives crossing class lines as they become entangled with the wealthy Wilcox family and a struggling clerk, Leonard Bast. Emma Thompson is Margaret, a thoughtful, independent woman whose connection to Ruth Wilcox (Vanessa Redgrave) draws her toward the Wilcoxes’ guarded world. Helena Bonham Carter’s Helen pushes more restlessly against the limits of class and convention, while Anthony Hopkins’ Henry Wilcox brings money, authority, and strain into the sisters’ orbit. James Ivory’s adaptation of E. M. Forster follows these intersecting households through questions of property, marriage, and social change.
