Movie: The Quartet

Posted on 5:58 AM by Unknown
The Quartet is a delightful bit of highbrow BBC fluff, full of famous British actors, beautiful settings and lucious music.

Put differently, I completely agree with the characteriziation in the NY Times review but I am happier about it than they are.

Recommended if you have been missing Masterpiece Theater.
