Adapted by Oscar® winner Kenneth Lonergan (Manchester by the Sea), this acclaimed version of E.M. Forster's classic novel is the story of two independent and unconventional sisters in Edwardian London. Margaret Schlegel (Hayley Atwell) is an intelligent, idealistic young woman who is courted by the older Henry Wilcox (Matthew Macfadyen, Succession), a self-made conservative businessman, after his wife Ruth Wilcox (Julia Ormond) dies unexpectedly and he becomes owner of Howards End. Younger sister Helen Schlegel (Philippa Coulthard) takes up the cause of Leonard Bast (Joseph Quinn), a young bank clerk who falls on hard times. In the absence of their late parents, the sisters' loving but interfering Aunt Juley (Tracey Ullman) tries to keep the young ladies and their brother Tibby (Alex Lawther) on the straight and narrow. 4 episodes, 4 hrs, 1 DVD.
