1 En Film Av Roger Michell Som Gjorde Notting Hill Och the Mother Efter Ian 1 En film av Roger Michell som gjorde Notting Hill och The Mother efter Ian McEwans bästsäljande roman Kärlekens raseri /Enduring Love Joe (Daniel Craig) och Claire (Samantha Morton) är ett intellektuellt medelklasspar som en dag på en utflykt på landet råkar bevittna en fruktansvärd händelse, när en luftballong kapsejsar. I korgen klamrar sig en liten pojke fast, medan pappan hänger i repet och försöker dra ner ballongen. Joe och en annan förbipasserande , Jed (Rhys Ifans) rusar fram för att hjälpa till, men de klarar inte att hålla sig kvar och släpper till slut taget. När Jed efteråt söker kontakt med Joe blir det mer och mer klart att den traumatiska upplevelsen kommer att påverka alla deras liv på ett sätt de aldrig kunnat förutse. Joe har förberett för en perfekt eftermiddag på landet för sig och flickvännen Claire. Men de hinner inte öppna champageflaskan förrän idyllen får ett abrupt slut. Det är Joe som tillsammans med Jed hittar den döda kroppen efter olyckan. Efteråt kan han inte släppa tankarna på sin egen skuld i händelsen. Varför släppte han taget? Kunde han ha räddat mannen? Och vad är Jed egentligen ute efter, när han söker upp honom gång på gång. Medan Jeds beteende blir mer och mer oförklarligt för Joe, växer sprickan mellan Joe och Claire. Till slut är det ingen som riktigt förstår vad som händer, utom att de sakta men säkert drivs mot en katastrof.

    saville productions 489 Carroll Avenue Venice, CA 90291 T \ 310.828.1478 F \ 310.828.4147 rogermichell | featurefilmdirectors Roger Michell is an award-winning theater director whose venture into film and television has been equally successful. Roger’s film "Notting Hill" has become one of the highest grossing British films of all time. Roger was born in South Africa, but spent significant parts of his childhood in Beirut, Damascus, and Prague, since his father's job as a diplomat required the family to move often. While in England, he enrolled at Cambridge University, where he received considerable attention for his directing talents. After graduating from Cambridge, Roger moved to London and began an apprenticeship at the Royal Court Theatre. During this time, he was living hand-to-mouth in a rundown section of town, but he was gaining invaluable experience acting as assistant director to noted British playwrights John Osborne and Samuel Beckett. Roger soon began writing and directing projects on his own. The most successful of these ventures was 1982's Private Dick, a comedy which won the Fringe First Award at the world famous Edinburgh Festival in Scotland. In 1985, Roger joined the Royal Shakespeare Company and was the Resident Director there for six years. During his tenure, he was nominated for the Drama Desk Award for directing the immensely popular Some Americans Abroad. After the Royal Shakespeare Company, Roger directed two miniseries and a documentary for British television before receiving his feature break directing the film adaptation of Jane Austin's novel Persuasion (1995.) Originally shown on BBC and later released by Columbia TriStar, the movie earned five BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) Awards, including Best Drama.

During a two-day escapade, diffident, wistful Nick and demanding, take-charge Meg careen from harmony to disharmony to resignation and back again as they take stock of half a lifetime of deep tenderness -- and even deeper regret. A surprise invitation from Nick’s old friend Morgan (Jeff Goldblum), an amusingly boorish American academic with a fancy Parisian address, soon leads them to an unexpectedly hopeful vision of what their love and marriage might still become.
