Quartet

/ / Movie Reviews
  • Title: Quartet
  • IMDB: link

quartet-posterQuartet, which marks actor Dustin Hoffman‘s first time behind the camera in the director’s chair, is a perfectly fine (if completely unremarkable) film.

Adapted by Ronald Harwood from his play of the same name, the plot centers around the goings-on at a British retirement home for musicians. Our leading foursome is made up of a stroke victim who has lost the ability to censor himself (Billy Connolly), an increasingly confused busybody dealing with the on-set of Alzheimer’s (Pauline Collins), and the buttoned-down Reggie (Tom Courtenay) whose life is thrown upside down by the arrival of the famous former fourth member of their illustrious quartet, his ex-wife Jean (Maggie Smith).

Most of the film is devoted into two stories. The first involves Jean trying to earn Reggie’s forgiveness and reconnect with the love of her life who she lost to a terrible mistake in judgement decades ago. Pretty much by the book, you can probably guess exactly how this plotline plays out.
