Summary

When Sir Chauncey Savage (Richard E. Grant) and his reserved wife (Claire Foy) host the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire during a deadly pox outbreak, their Regency-era estate becomes the stage for a wild, black-comic descent into chaos. With Grant delivering a manic, emotionally fractured performance and Foy anchoring the drama with chilling calm, the film’s episodic structure and frenetic score amplify the Savages’ spiral from genteel hosts to desperate gamblers of their own fortune. A sharp, witty ride that’s as darkly funny as it is psychologically gripping. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
