Venus
Hanif Kureishi-penned comedy drama starring Peter O'Toole and Leslie Phillips as Maurice and Ian, a pair of veteran actors who never quite hit the big time and now find themselves in their 'Golden Years'. They continue to work, though the jobs are far from glamorous.
Their comfortable routine and witty banter over breakfast in a favourite place is disrupted by the arrival of Ian's grand-niece, Jessie (Jodie Whittaker). Jessie quickly tries her great-uncle's patience; but Maurice is absolutely taken with the young woman and proceeds to show her the cultural sights of London. As Maurice tries to give Jessie the benefit of his experience, he is surprised to discover how very little he knows...
