Film Synopsis:-A Dance to the Music of Time , Anthony Powell's epic literary masterpiece, is brought to the screen in this sumptuous adaptation. Friendship, murder, adultery, ambition and failure are set against a backdrop of social, political and artistic life during the pivotal years of this century. The 'dance' creates a panoramic view of human experience which moves from the decadence of the early Twenties of the Second World War to the world created in its aftermath. Centre stage is Kenneth Widmerpool (Simon Russell Beale). Once the butt of schoolboy jokes, his rise to power through business, the military and politics confounds his contemporaries. The comings and goings of Widmerpool and his circle, falling in and out of each other's lives, is charted by the omnipresent Nicholas Jenkins (James Purefoy), who guides us through the web of interwoven relationships. This release features all four parts of the Channel Four series. | ||||
