Handsome but spiritually empty transcription of the Evelyn Waugh novel about spiritual emptiness: you'd have only the faintest idea there had been anything funny, much less satirical, about the original novel. Kristin Scott Thomas and Rupert Graves, however, manage to convey much of the right qualities in the roles of Lady Brenda and her inexplicable choice of lover. With James Wilby and Alec Guinness; directed by Charles Sturridge. (1988) — Duncan Shepherd
