One of the finest love stories where neither of the two ever uttered that simple three words, but you could hear that humming throughout the remains of the day
It was a book about Labradors. Notice His Lordship dog was a Labrador - Stevens was the Butler that picked that particular breed. In fact: in a deleted scene; Stevens is outraged that he's not getting more time with that dog. How dare that HUSSEY interfere with his Labrador reading. WHOM does she think she is? That's what he thought. THATS WHAT I THOUGHT
More importantly, about the struggles of class and station. And the realization that your life in service, wasn't even in service to a moral man. The main principle that Steven defines the greatness of a butler, is serving a great lord with dignity. If he has to come to terms that Darlington wasn't a great master, was he a butler? If not, what or who is he?
@neubianx It's not inner conflict that Hopkin's role displays. It's his pure character without ANY inner conflict. For this character is as complex and dynamic as any, but so few understand him.
as Siskel and Ebert said too it was really moving the scene where his father is dying and there's a very important dinner happening in the house, and he puts the dinner above everything else, just showing how cut off he is from the real emotions of life. It's often a peculiary British thing, French, Italians, very little trouble saying what they feel but Brits always dance around it.....
I’ve been craving for this type of relationship/relationships with someone all my life. I guess I’m gonna have to wait a little bit longer I’m afraid. I watched this film many years ago and I’m glad I’ve rewatched it again. A lot to learn about human relations from this film. My heart is happy and sad at the same time. 30 years ago. My God where has all this time gone? Where have all those people gone?
Composer Richard Robbins (1940-2012) was an integral part of the Merchant Ivory "team," which comprised in addition producer Ismail Merchant, director James Ivory and screenwriter Ruth Prawer Jhabwala. Another outstanding Robbins score, and a personal favorite of mine, is that for "Maurice" (1987).
Have you seen Deathtrap? He's so very good in that movie as well and so sad when you know what was to happen. He managed to be charming, attractive, muscular, and a bit menacing, all at the same time. The great acting of his and Michael Caine made a pretty far fetched movie believable.
Such a wonderful film. Anthony's acting is brilliant. To play the schizoid butler. The film and Ishiguro's book are subtly different. I recommend you view/read both. My other favourite films are: The Straight Story, (David Lynch), and Whistle Down The Wind, dir: Bryan Forbes), with wonderful music from Malcolm Arnold.
Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, the resident screenwriter for Merchant Ivory, was herself a writer with numerous novels and short stories to her credit. Her respect for other authors' works certainly comes through in her adaptations.
I thought this was a great movie (based on an amazing book). In this trailer though, the narrator says Anthony Hopkins’ character had been a butler for 30 years before Emma Thompson’s character showed up. Is that possible? I didn’t think his character was any more than 40 at the point when Thompson’s character showed up.
Yeah, I think. That would mean he started around 1900, and the book starts in 1956 when he's an old man. That would place him at probably in his fifties when Miss Kenton arrives and would mean he served Lord Darlington since he was relatively young and for his entire time as a butler. Given his devotion to Lord Darlington, this is certainly possible. I'd assumed that Miss Kenton was a bit closer in age to him from the book, though.
Remaining movie is absolutely going to change but I still think it's really awesome filmed is definitely amazing ever I really think in this video is massive Fully great ever I really enjoyed it alot very unique ever nice
I like comments like yours that add something unique and perverse to the usual "Oh, this is a wonderful video" or "Oh, I like what they say" kind of thing.
I'm curious for the cast because they don't usually pick bad scripts, but the story seems so unappealing and over used. Maybe it was more daring back in the day.
I wouldn't call it daring at all, it is an unusual romance to say the least with an unconventional romantic 'hero'. The actors are impeccable, including the wonderful Peter Vaughan who I didn't even notice in this trailer
Read the book in lit class, was honestly bored for the first 80 pages and then enthralled for the rest. Maybe the internal dialogue of Steven's, and the unreliability of his accounts, isn't as good on screen.
Depends on one's tastes. I think The Remains of the Day is one of the best films ever made, but it helps if you like subtle psychological exploration, historical dramas, anti-Hollywood style love stories, and stunningly brilliant acting without the need to see a lot of things "happening." I've personally never seen another movie or story quite like this, so I can't agree it was "overused."

Anything with Anthony Hopkins is gold.
What about the time he shit in an outside toilet in a Romanian village?
Really great film, so much unspoken tension and sadness to it. The bit where he's unable to show her the book was so well done.

Exquisitely, painfully faithful to its source material, which itself is exquisitely, painfully faithful to human nature and history.
The great internal conflict Hopkins conveys is remarkable. A great modern tragedy about failing to act on the moment.
More importantly, about the struggles of class and station. And the realization that your life in service, wasn't even in service to a moral man. The main principle that Steven defines the greatness of a butler, is serving a great lord with dignity. If he has to come to terms that Darlington wasn't a great master, was he a butler?

That was so well put. So deep. Thank you!

Anthony Hopkins gives a genius minimalist performance here.
The only reason I think he didn't get the Oscar is because he'd won last time.
@@lw3646 2 years before actually. And anyway, has happened more than once that an actor won twice consecutively.
wow 30 years since the release of this masterpiece.
Morgan Freeman’s admiration to Anthony Hopkins, specifically on his performance in this movie brought me here.
It deserves an oscar, but in the same year we had schindler's list, jurassic park, and the piano lol
I think this is the sort of movie that teach me something else when I watch it again.
A perfect novel, moving and lived-in performances by Hopkins and Thompson, and erudite adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro's highly acclaimed novel
Truly an EPIC film, but can we appreciate the music of this film truly impressive and magical and suits the atmosphere of the story

Wonderful film with a wonderful Emma Thompson
Kramer is a JEW name.
@@labrador-fx3fb labrador is a cat name.
Hey, Labrador, you STOP THAT.
a tour de force, not only of storytelling but also of the actors craft
great movie! all the movies that year were amazing! Anthony is one of the best actors ever
He does want to be Richard so much, I'd say anything with Emma Thompson
This film is a masterpiece.
Well worth a view. Maybe a Sunday night kind of film.
To think Christopher Reeve's life will change forever 2 years after movie's relase.
Very sad 😢

@@kathym.248 I saw. Probably his best and most suprising performance. Too bad he didn't have too many occasions to show his real talent.

Fantastic movie!
Here because of I just finished the Kazuo Ishiguro novel. If you enjoyed the animé, you’ll LOVE the Manga!!!
Where can I watch this movie??
This is based off the Ishiguro book of the same title, a Nobel prize winner. Many lines are the exact same.
Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, the resident screenwriter for Merchant Ivory, was herself a writer with numerous novels and short stories to her credit. Her respect for other authors' works certainly comes through in her adaptations.
Great movie!
I will watch it now and see how it is

Who is the narrator in this trailer. Nostalgic voice.
Don LaFointaine, he narrated a lot of trailers; including Clear and Present Danger and Tombstone

I świetna książka Kazuro Ishiguro Okruchy dnia:)

Anthony Hopkins is 85 meaning he was 55ish when the film was made in 1993
Yeah, I think. That would mean he started around 1900, and the book starts in 1956 when he's an old man.

In Tokyo it are raining not
@@davidcopson5800 I agree it's not raining their
I kind of think a British movie deserves a British voice-over for the trailer.
Sounds good, I’ll watch it. It looks old
did you watch it?
@@greenbobbergapparently not. I will now
no wonder Kira Yoshikage loves this movie.
I completely forgot Christopher Reeve was in this
He had previously played a lead role in the Merchant Ivory film adaptation of Henry James's "The Bostonians" (1984).
Wow.
All he had to do was say it once, and she'd stay for ever. Both both lost the chance. sad yet sweet
Having read the book but not seen the film, the casting choices seem weird. Hopkins is too shrewd seeming and Emma Thompson just too…sophisticated.
Schade das Deutsce version ist
Interesting.
Why did family guy call this a boring film?
No chase scenes, splosions. Too much 'acting'
Family Guy is written by midwits, maybe that's why.
Because 'Family Guy' is the portrait of the idiot families from the U.S.
He lacks emotional discernment.
Because Seth McFarlane is even more autistic than the butler.
Nice

I think at some point he had to open up. Just a tad little. But it was lot more of the same. "Oh yes sir, of course sir, certainly sir."
