Maurice [Region 2]
»rank: 35697
0ur opinion: :The second of the three Merchant/lvory films adapting E.M. Forster novels (between A Room with a View and Howard's End), Maurice deals with a theme few period pieces dare mention--a young man's struggle with his homosexuality. lt's not just a gay coming-of-age story, however.

The film opens on a stormy, windswept beach, as an older man awkwardly instructs young, fatherless Maurice Hall (James Wilby) in the 'sacred mysteries' of sex. ...
