The Remains of the Day (1993)
Overview · Where to watch · Cast & crew · Reviews
Diamond in the Rough.
A rule-bound head butler's world of manners and decorum in the household he maintains is tested by the arrival of a housekeeper who falls in love with him in post-WWI Britain. The possibility of romance and his master's cultivation of ties with the Nazi cause challenge his carefully maintained veneer of servitude.
