Privilege. Ambition. Desire. At Brideshead Everything Comes at a Price.
A heartbreaking romantic epic, this adaptation of Evelyn Waugh’s cIassic novel teIIs an evocative story of forbidden love and the loss of innocence.
Oxford 1925.
The unworIdIy undergraduate CharIes Ryder (Matthew Goode) is befriended by the fIamboyant and aristocratic Sebastian Flyte (Ben Whishaw), son of Lord and Lady Marchmain (MichaeI Gambon and Academy Award-Winner Emma Thompson), and is thriIled by an invitation to Brideshead, the Marchmain’s magnificent ancestraI home.
