Synopsis: The Remains of the Day (1993)

James Ivory directed this quietly moving film set just prior to World War II.

James Ivory directed this quietly moving film set just prior to World War II. On the large English estate of Lord Darlington (James Fox), a disciplined English butler, Stevens (Anthony Hopkins), devotes himself to his duties with rigorous dedication. Like his father (Peter Vaughan) before him, Stevens lives to serve--to bring order and certainty to the estate's minutiae. Though Stevens has the opportunity to break free of this mold in the form of a romance with the spirited housekeeper, Miss Kenton (Emma Thompson), he chooses to remain within the safe structure of the household, even one that has misguided loyalties to Nazi Germany. Christopher Reeve and Hugh Grant costar as men hoping to show Lord Darlington the danger of his allegiances. THE REMAINS OF THE DAY was Merchant-Ivory's follow-up to HOWARDS END, which also starred Hopkins and Thompson; both actors were nominated for Academy Awards for their roles as dutiful servants in the later film.

User Reviews: The Remains of the Day (1993)

  • Overall:

    BEST ACTION FILM EVER

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 20, 2001 | 1 out of 1 found this The Remains of the Day (1993) review helpful

    Not since the DIE HARD and LETHAL WEAPON franchises, has an action adventure film been such a crowd pleaser. Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson portray a married couple forced against their will to singlehandedly take on Libyan terrorists who are plan...ning a takeover of the Denny's on Rt. 9 in North Carolina. Dramatic computer graphics and Thompson's flawlessly choreographed martial arts routines are only some of the aspects which make this a rollercoaster of a movie. The scene where Anthony Hopkins jumps from the exploding building with two children in his arms is probably the greatest stunt ever performed in Hollywood films. This is definitely the best of the Jerry Bruckheimer produced films. A must see. Read more Less

    WASTED DAYS AND WASTED NIGHTS

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 22, 2002

    Superb directing, filming, editing wasted by uneven script from Hell. Immortal Hopkins' character is simply poorly written, Thompson is no housemaid, (Zane being inadvertently uncast) Reeve and Grant vie for Ham of the Millennium --- only consistent... screen stealer Fox is permitted to shine.
