The performances are impeccable, but honours go to Thompson, who manages to make Margaret's saintliness actually seem seductive.

fresh:
It's time for legislation decreeing that no one be allowed to make a screen adaptation of a novel of any quality whatsoever if Ismail Merchant, James Ivory and Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are available, and if they elect to do the job.

fresh:
The film serves Forster by taking to heart the book's epigraph: "Only connect."

Rolling Stone,

Merchant and Ivory have regathered many of the cast and crew from their earlier films to work on this reproduction to exquisite effect.
