Set in the twilight of the roaring twenties and at the cusp of the next decade, EASY VIRTUE is the story of John Whittaker, a young Englishman who, after falling head-over-heels in love with glitzy American Larita, finds himself getting married rather promptly. Returning to the family home, Larita's newfound mother-in-law develops an instant allergic reaction to the Whitakers' newest family member. While accommodating to Mrs Whittaker's prickly personality at first, Larita quickly discovers that in order to make her marriage work, she must play her mother-in-law at her own game, and a battle of wits ensue... Based on the play by Noel Coward.

Easy Virtue director Stephan Elliott almost killed his crew before filming on the period comedy started - by serving them dead rat tea. The Aussie thought he was being a saint when he offered to make tea for the film crew as they were preparing Nottingham's Flintham Hall for shooting - but he had no idea he was serving up contaminated water. He explains, "It was only later when the owner of the house came up and she made herself a cup of tea, using bottled water that I suspected something was... Read more
