Quartet

Has anyone seen this charming film? Caught it (late) last night - for the second time. What a cast. Maggie Smith, Tom Courtenay, Pauline Collins, Billy Connolly, Sheridan Smith and other faces I knew.

Re: Quartet

Beautiful film. Wonderful acting by several of my favourite actors.
I have seen it several times, in the cinema once, have the DVD & now on TV.

Re: Quartet

Think I'll have to invest in the DVD.

Re: Quartet

Maggie Smith actually made two films named "Quartet"

One in 1081 - which was seriously weird - and this lovely little gem from 2012. I really love this film - it has such gentle comedy. Maggie is brilliant, of course, and she has such a wonderful supporting cast - Pauline Collins, Tom Courtney, Andrew Sachs, Billy Connolly etc., The only weak link is the plank known as Michael Gambon but he can safely be ignored. It is a 'feel good' film and i watch the DVD quite often.

Re: Quartet

This film is an example of why I love British films, a good storyline, no explosions, no special effects. the actors are the ones who carry the film not the CGI..

Re: Quartet

Very true, Cass.

Re: Quartet

Yes ive had on DVD for quite awhile, it is very good.

Re: Quartet

I saved this on my Humax some time ago and have watched it a couple of times since - it is one of the rare things that are timeless and so watchable. I just love the whole cast the way they fitted together. Will watch again I am sure.

Re: Quartet

Bought the DVD and I'm sure will be watching it again - and again!!
