The captivating story of love, honor, family and betrayal.
Destitute and drunken, Michael Henchard is an itinerant farmhand who sells his wife and daughter to a sailor in a moment of alcohol-fueled desperation. So begins The Mayor of Casterbridge, Thomas Hardy's enduring classic.
This lavish new adaptation from A&E and Britain's ITV stars Ciaran Hinds (Road To Perdition, Jane Eyre) as the tragic, tormented Henchard. Decades after his fateful decision, now reformed and respectable, he is offered a chance at redemption when his wife reappears with her daughter. But the reunion's promise is soon tarnished by a web of jealousy, deceit and wounded pride.
Adapted for the screen by Ted Whitehead (A&E's Tess Of the D'Urbervilles) The Mayor Of Casterbridge features powerful supporting performances from Jodhi May (The House of Mirth), Polly Walker (Emma), and James Purefoy (A Knight's Tale, Mansfield Park). |
