Mrs. Palfrey at the Claremont

Streaming video - 2015

A genteel widow moves to London to start her life anew at the dowdy Claremont Hotel, which is not quite the picture of loveliness it was in the brochure. When she meets a young aspiring writer, she learns that real family ties can be chosen, not inherited. With echoes of Tuesdays with Morrie, the intimacy portrayed brings surprising layers and emotion, enveloping the viewer like a cozy shawl.
