The Terence Rattigan Collection (DVD) Description

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 or region free DVD player in order to play.  In his centenary year, the genius of playwright Terence Rattigan is at last being recognised and The Terence Rattigan Collection is an invaluable compendium of his finest work, performed by some outstanding casts. Rattigan had a profound understanding of the human heart in all its complexity. He is the master of an emotional restraint which gives his work its unforgettable power and attracts, in this collection, star actors of the calibre of Sean Connery and Colin Firth, Penelope Wilton and Judi Dench, Ian Holm and Michael Gambon, Eric Porter and Geraldine McEwan. In The Terence Rattigan Collection, great acting and great story-telling combine to make compulsive viewing. Heart to Heart (The Largest Theatre in The World) The first in the "Largest Theatre in the World" series of plays, Heart to Heart centres around a TV interviewer determined to get a coup on a dodgy cabinet minister. Starring Kenneth More, Ralph Richardson, Derek Francis. All On Her Own (A Touch of Venus) Rosemary returns from a party to the empty Hampstead house where she has lived since the death of her husband, but was his overdose of sleeping pills purely accidental? She is going to try to find out. Separate Tables (BBC Play of the Month) Loneliness, desire and repression are explored in the setting of a Bournemouth Hotel. French Without Tears (BBC Play of the Month) The comic, sometimes painful, fallings-out of five young male English students at a residential language cramming establishment in France. The Winslow Boy (BBC Play of the Month) The term at Osborne Naval College is not yet over.
