Movie Haiku:A very proper upper middle class English family becomes embroiled in a scandal forcing all of its members into considerable soul-searching. Different in every way from a "typical" David Mamet film -- relatively linear story line, surprisingly sweet ending. Great fun watching Jeremy Northrup & Rebecca Pidgeon thaw!
