(James Ivory, 1981, France/U.K., 101 minutes) 

 

Premiering at the 1981 Cannes Film Festival the same year as Possession—Isabelle Adjani won Best Actress as a joint award for both films at the fest—Quartet is a Merchant Ivory production based on the novel of the same name by John Rhys (Wide Sargasso Sea). Set in the Bohemian Paris of the 1920s, Adjani plays Marya, a West-Indian who is left destitute when her husband is imprisoned. She lands on her feet, at least seemingly, when she finds residence in the home of the painter Lois (English icon Maggie Smith) and her lecherous husband (Alan Bates).

 

In English and French with English subtitles.
