A Month in the Country

Directed by Pat O'Connor

Two soldiers recover from the first World War while spending a summer in a Yorkshire village.
Based on the novel A Month in the Country by J. L. Carr. Buy the book on Amazon.
A Month in the Country is a beautifully restrained British drama about trauma, memory and two veterans rebuilding their lives in rural Yorkshire after the First World War. Pat O’Connor’s direction is gentle, and Colin Firth and Kenneth Branagh give the film quiet emotional depth.
