Merchant Ivory Season
Director James Ivory and producer Ismail Merchant (1936–2005) together created 24 feature films over their 44 year partnership. Their pictures garnered 30 Academy Award Nominations and were critically-acclaimed, many of which were quintessentially tasteful and glossy British dramas with subversive undercurrent themes. In this season Triskel Arts Centre presents three of the Merchant Ivory Productions (HOWARDS END, MAURICE and HEAT & DUST) as well the new documentary MERCHANT IVORY, a fascinating, revealing and rather sumptuous film about this legendary filmmaking duo.
