Brief Encounter – 80th Anniversary

Returning home from a shopping trip to a nearby town, bored suburban housewife Laura Jesson is thrown by happenstance into an acquaintance with virtuous doctor Alec Harvey. Their casual friendship soon develops during their weekly visits into something more emotionally fulfilling than either expected, and they must wrestle with the potential havoc their deepening relationship would have on their lives and the lives of those they love.

Based on Noël Coward’s play Still Life, David Lean's 1945 classic of post-war cinema returns to the silver screen for its 80th anniversary.
