A Handful of Dust

“It's a long fall from high society”

Tony Last (James Wilby) is an English aristocrat devoted to his vast country estate and to his wife, Brenda (Kristin Scott Thomas), and he trusts both without a second thought. When he invites John Beaver (Rupert Graves) to visit, Brenda meets him there, and the two begin meeting in London for bedroom assignations. Charles Sturridge keeps Tony the last to know, while Brenda and Beaver carry on in the next room of the marriage.
