Carrington

Summary: "Written and directed by Academy Award� winner Christopher Hampton (Dangerous Liaisons) and starring Emma Thompson (Sense and Sensibility) and Jonathan Pryce (Evita), Carrington is an 'emotionally complex, moving' (Los Angeles Times) tale of lifelong love with unorthodox compromises, that is utterly enthralling entertainment! Amid the trendy, bohemian scene of London' famed Bloomsbury group, Dora Carrington (Thompson), a talented young artist, first meets bon vivant and writer Lytton Strachey (Pryce). The two creative souls are instantly attracted, although Strachey's desires clearly lie elsewhere. The unlikely pair joyously spends colorful days pursuing their arts - and discovering that love works in mysterious ways. But their blissful existence hangs in the balance when Carrington brings home a lover and they suddenly find themselves caught in a bizarre love triangle. As conflicting passions heat to a boiling point, will true love triumph or will Carrington lose her one and only soul mate forever?"--Container.
