Judi Dench Jeremy Irons
Langrishe, Go Down

Directed by David Jones
Written by Harold Pinter
Great Britain 1978
105 MINUTES
CASTLE HILL PRODUCTIONS

In the late '70s Jeremy Irons and Judi Dench starred in a Harold Pinter adaptation of an Aidan Higgins novel - the story of a lonely single woman, of gone-to-seed aristocratic origins, who throws herself into a passionate love affair with an unscrupulous intellectual living on her property. Though wildly praised when it played on the BBC, LANGRISHE, GO DOWN never received a theatrical release. Here now is the subtle, exquisite drama British critics hailed as "a richly detailed, resonant, totally satisfying film" with a script that is "complex, funny, entirely engrossing" (Time Out, London); "Harold Pinter wrote this superlative story redolent of personal and social decay... Judi Dench and Jeremy Irons give magnificent performances as the lovers... A must." (Evening Standard, London).
