Maurice
(1987)
Maurice Hall and Clive Durham find themselves falling in love at Cambridge, in a time when homosexuality is punishable by imprisonment. After a friend is arrested and disgraced for “the unspeakable vice of the Greeks,” Clive abandons his forbidden love and marries a young woman. Maurice, however, struggles with his identity, seeking the help of a hypnotist to rid himself of his undeniable urges. But while staying with Clive and his shallow wife, Maurice is seduced by the affectionate and yearning servant Alec Scudder, an event that brings about profound changes in Maurice’s life and outlook. Based on the novel by E.M. Forster.
