Produced in the wake of the success of QUARTET, this follow-up brings three more stories by W. Somerset Maugham to the screen with the enduringly popular author’s gentle irony and keen human insight intact. The writer himself is once again on hand to introduce these tales of a pious church employee who finds unexpected success as an entrepreneur, a pompous jewelry dealer who upsets the social order aboard a cruise ship, and the tangled relationships among the patients at a Scottish sanatorium, vividly brought to life by a sterling ensemble that includes Jean Simmons, Michael Rennie, and Kathleen Harrison.
