Brava for The Quartet

image                                  image

See this film.  Dustin Hoffman directed The Quartet and Ronald Harwood wrote the screenplay and play that ran in London's West End. It stars Maggie Smith, Billy Connolly, Pauline Collins, Tom Courtenay, and Michael Gambon. It is a 2012 British Comedy Drama about the lives of gifted retired musicians living at Beecham House.  Much of the supporting cast is made up actual musical stars of the past. At the end of the film you will see the credits of their musical careers. I cried and laughed and pray that I can age with these caring souls around me. Do not miss it. It is a touching film.
