Where Angels Fear to Tread (1991) short review

1991 Where Angels Fear to Tread

An E.M. Forster adaptation (surprisingly NOT done by Merchant Ivory) that’s too often overlooked.  Helen Mirren plays a middle aged English woman who falls in love with an Italian man half her age.  She dies (in Italy) leaving a child, and her siblings (played by Helena Bonham Carter, Judy Davis, and Rupert Graves) go to Italy in search of the child.
