Howards End (1992)

Howards End DVD
An excellent DVD of a classic movie. The second disk with rich information about the making of the movie was fascinating.

One of the Best Movies Ever Made
This film is a wonderful fusion of acting, art direction, cinematography and editing. Yes, the plot is low key, but it's about relationships between people of different social classes. This was the theme of the book, and it is captured on film.

I'm always amazed that I can watch this movie over and over again and be so involved with one subplot that I forget the other even exists until the end when all of the characters' lives come together.

A beautiful, truthful, faithful, perfectly rendered work of cinematic art
This is, in my estimation, the most faithful transfer from a novel I have ever seen. The acting is superb and the cinematography and direction gel into one of the most rewarding movie experiences I have ever had. I own the DVD and find that I constantly come back to it to see not just a good story, but one that is masterfully put together. I suppose Ang Lee is responsible for this. If this genre is to your taste, then "Howard's End" should be at the top of the list. See it and I hope that you come away from it with a similar reaction. Some people just miss the point of it all, and that is a sad commentary on the human race.
