A middle-class couple–Keith (Roger Sloman) and Candice Marie (Alison Steadman)–arrive at a campground prepared to tent camp and follow (to a fault) the guidebook's suggestions for discovering the countryside. Neighboring campers, however, prove to be more than small distractions to Keith's meticulously planned vacation.

Director: Stephen Frears Cast: Gary Oldman, Alfred Molina, Vanessa Redgrave, Wallace Shawn, Lindsay Duncan, Julie Walters, Frances Barber, Janet Dale, Bert Parnaby, Margaret Tyzack, Stephen Bill, Rosalind Knight, James Grant, Roger Lloyd-Pack, Helena Michell
This film is based on the biography of British playwright Joe Orton (Gary Oldman) who, despite financial success, lived for years in a small London room with Kenneth Halliwell (Alfred Molina). One night, Halliwell killed Orton and then committed suicide. This film relates the story behind the grisly crime. Interesting look at (illegal) homosexuality in England in the 1950s and 1960s.
