The Remains of the Day (1993)
The Remains of the Day is a 1993 drama movie directed by James Ivory, with a running time of 2h 14m. It stars Anthony Hopkins, Emma Thompson and James Fox.
A rule-bound head butler's world of manners and decorum in the household he maintains is tested by the arrival of a housekeeper who falls in love with him in post-WWI Britain. The possibility of romance and his master's cultivation of ties with the Nazi cause challenge his carefully maintained veneer of servitude.
