Heavy Weather

1995 · 95 min

A gentle, witty farce of manners where eccentric aristocrats fuss over a pig and family secrets, delivering cosy, nostalgic charm.

Overview: At Blandings Castle, the Earl of Emsworth only cares about his prize pig 'The Empress' and is wilfully ignorant of the fact that his brother is planning to publish a book which might ruin the family name forever. Moreover, the Earl's nephew might cause the family some major damage by getting married to a terribly unsuitable chorus girl. An adaptation of P.G. Wodehouse's novel of the same name.
