A Room with a View
A crowd-pleasing film with art house appeal can mean a bonanza at the box office—a formula that made James Ivory’s film one of the surprise hits of 1985. Based on E. M. Forster’s 1908 romance, the movie is equally memorable for the new careers it launched including those of Daniel Day-Lewis and an 18-year-old Helena Bonham Carter. Countering those fresh faces are the crème de la crème of British acting royalty, Maggie Smith, Denholm Elliott, and Judi Dench. NSFW.
