    A Handful of Dust

    PG1988 · Drama · 1h 58m
      • Savagely sharp, compelling and still painfully close to home, Handful of Dust reads well as a piercing satire on the mores of the British upper classes in the 1930's. The ending gives the novel the touch of the absurd poignancy hinting at later existentialism and lifts Handful of Dust to the ranks of truly memorable.
