Lady Chatterley 50th Anniversary Edition

Fifty years ago, the publication of D.H. Lawrence’s scandalous novel led to one of the most celebrated obscenity trials of the 20^th century. To mark that occasion we present acclaimed director Ken Russell’s powerful film version which brings this vivid and extraordinary tale to life. Joely Richardson stars as Lady Chatterley, wife to the emotionally and physically paralysed Sir Clifford in a post-war England which finds itself on the cusp of change.

The old ways and class divisions have begun to crumble as the bulk of a nation's youth fell in the trenches leaving a downtrodden but emboldened few. As Lady Chatterley, bereft of her husband's attention, finds a re-awakening in the arms of a working man, more is at stake than honour and more is at risk than marriage, in this dramatic and passionate re-telling of Lawrence's now classic tale.
