The Retrospective: HOWARDS END
Showtime
Margaret Schlegel mourns the recently deceased Ruth Wilcox, with whom she had a brief but warm friendship. The conservative Wilcox family, however, conceals Ruth’s last wish to bequeath the beloved country house Howard’s End to Margaret.
Years later, Margaret Schlegel and Ruth’s widower Henry find each other as a couple and marry. However, the difference between the free-thinking, culture-loving Schlegel family and the traditional Victorian members of the Wilcox family remains. Thus, the modern views of Margaret’s younger sister Helen repeatedly clash with the values of the family-in-law. Finally, fate puts Margaret to the test:
Will she defy her husband’s strict will?
HOWARDS END is based on the novel of the same name by Edward Morgan Forster.
