The Dresser
1983, 114 minutes, Rated PG
The lives and relationships of a British touring stage company provide the backdrop for this five-time Oscar nominee (1983 - Best Picture/Best Actor/Best Supporting Actor/Best Director/Best Screenplay Adaptation) written by Ronald Harwood and directed by Peter Yates.
With "simply superb (Leonard Maltin)" performances, Albert Finnet and Tom Courtenay play the film's two main characters - the wardrobe man blindly devoted to his star and the actor who seems only devoted to himself. A compelling study of their intense relationship, The Dresser is a fascinating glimpse into life 'backstage' and a brilliant motion picture rich in comedy, drama and love for the theatre.
