Director James Ivory joined Film Society Editorial Director Michael Koresky in discussion about his Oscar-winning 1992 film 'Howards End' following a screening in a new digital restoration at the Film Society of Lincoln Center. • Rarely has a screen adaptation of a work of classic literature been pulled off with as much intelligence, power, and artistry as James Ivory and Ismail Merchant’s film of E. M. Forster’s Howards End. In her star-making, Oscar-winning performance, an effulgent Emma Thompson plays Margaret Schlegel, a liberal-minded, middle-class Londoner in Edwardian England whose fate becomes intertwined with the upper-crust Wilcoxes, Henry and Ruth (Anthony Hopkins and Vanessa Redgrave), as well as the working-class Leonard Bast (Samuel West), both due to dalliances of her free-spirited sister, Helen (Helena Bonham Carter). The Merchant-Ivory team’s renowned attention to detail and emotion is here put in the service of a complex and penetrating study of irreconcilable class issues, in which a story of inheritance—of Ruth’s splendid country home, Howards End—comes to stand in for the future of an entire country. We are pleased to present this three-time Oscar winner in a beautiful new 4K digital restoration, with director James Ivory in person. • More info: http://filmlinc.org/ • Subscribe: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c... • Like: / filmlinc • Follow: / filmlinc
