A wickedly funny and intelligent comedy of manners, where
lies & deception rule. In this stylish, witty mystery/thriller, an
investigator (Martin Dejdar, "Children of Dune") searches for the
truth of two dead men in an old manor run by an overbearing woman (Greta
Scachhi, "The Player," "Emma") and finds out quickly that
he's caught in a web of lies & deceit. Everyone is a suspect, everyone has
a motive and the mystery unfolds with comical twists and turns until the
unpredictable ending. Also starring Gabrielle Anwar ("Scent of a
Woman," "Three Musketeers") and screen legend Peter O'Toole
("Lawrence of Arabia," "My Favorite Year"), "The
Manor" is a beautifully crafted period film with stellar performances by a
terrific cast.
