Description:

This superb version of Henrik Ibsen's classic play A Doll's House stars Claire Bloom (Brideshead Revisited, Charly) as Nora, a sweet and lively but frivolous woman whose puritanical husband Torvald (Anthony Hopkins, The Silence of the Lambs, The Elephant Man) loves her but doesn't take her seriously. As Torvald assumes a new position as a bank manager, an old debt of Nora's intrudes upon their happy life and reveals secret sides of both husband and wife. The play has been skillfully turned into film, tightening the action and providing the opportunity for intimate performances from an outstanding cast that also includes Sir Ralph Richardson (The Fallen Idol, Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan), Dame Edith Evans (Tom Jones, The Importance of Being Earnest), Denholm Elliott (Raiders of the Lost Ark, A Room with a View), and other topnotch British actors. --Bret Fetzer
