Directed by Neil Jordan • 1999 • United Kingdom, United States
Starring Julianne Moore, Ralph Fiennes, Stephen Rea
This exquisite adaptation of Graham Greene’s stirring metaphysical novel of desire and betrayal stars an Oscar-nominated Julianne Moore as a married woman at the center of a torrid love triangle in World War II-era England. With equally powerful work from Ralph Fiennes as the obsessive lover driven to extremes, extravagant production design that captures the period setting in lavish detail, and a ravishing score from Michael Nyman, THE END OF THE AFFAIR is the rare prestige literary adaptation that lives and breathes on-screen.
