Review

 

In this final film by Oscar®-nominated producer Ismail Merchant, and Oscar®-nominee James Ivory, 1930s Shanghai provides the backdrop for this exceptional drama starring two-time Oscar®-nominee Ralph Fiennes as Todd Jackson, a diplomat blinded in a bombing.

An encounter with Sophia (Natasha Richardsonan), an exiled Countess employed as a bar girl, inspires Todd to open his own club, but only if she will work for him. Sophia's in-laws (two-time Oscar®-nominee Lynn Redgrave) and Sarah (Academy Award® winner Vanessa Redgrave), greedily pocket her income, but denounce her as a bad influence on her daughter. When Japanese troops invade the city, a mass exodus ensues! Alone and afraid, Sophia clings to the only hope left to her - finding her missing daughter!

Featuring a screenplay penned by The Remains of the Day author, Kazuo Ishiguro - winner of the 1989 Booker prize.
