The Passionate Friends (PG)


Sunday 28th September to Monday 29th September

1949 BFI Restored Print

Directed by David Lean

Monday 29th September - 10.30am & 7.30pm

Tuesday 30th September - 7.30pm

Newly restored by the BFI and Granada International, The Passionate Friends is one of the less well known films in the director's distinguished canon, yet this absorbing love story is a fascinating companion piece to Brief Encounter and has been hailed by critic David Thomson as - of all Lean's works - "the film most deserving rediscovery". Ann Todd stars as the enigmatic, emotionally reticent Mary who has chosen a comfortable life with her rich banker husband (Claude Rains) over romantic passion with her first love Steven (Trevor Howard). Turmoil ensues when Steven suddenly reappears in her life.

Running Time: 91mins

Ray's Choice (Managing Director)
