• Short-listed for Edgar Allan Poe Awards (Screenplay) 2002

Overview

Set in a magnificent country estate in 1932 Britain, Gosford Park is part comedy of manners and part mystery. The film is a moving portrait of events that bridge generations, class, sex, tragic personal histories - and culminate in a murder. Ultimately revealing the intricate relations of the above- and below-stairs worlds with great clarity, Gosford Park illuminates a society and way of life quickly coming to an end. In the acclaimed Newmarket Shooting Script Series format, the book contains a facsimile of the script with an introduction by director Robert Altman, an afterword by screenwriter Julian Fellowes, stills from the film, and full cast and crew credits.

The screenplay is so amazingly concise that if you watch the film more than once...you'll find barely a word has been wasted. Almost every sentence contains crucial information, but in a deceptively offhand style that's so light it feels like casual banter.
