'The Line of Beauty'

A story of love, class, sex and money in the Thatcherite 1980s.

Three episodes (of about an hour each), May 2006

We bring you this BBC mini-series based on Allan Hollinghurst's eponymous Booker winning novel after 'Angels in America' with which parallels may be drawn. The main themes of this story are... class division and envy, reverse snobbery, interracial relations, drug abuse, the HIV scourge and of course homophobia. However, it's a fairly straightforward drama with some gripping moments despite a sagging middle.

Synopsis: Nick Guest comes to London to live with his college friend's family, the Feddens. A short stay becomes permanent, and Nick positions himself in the family's plentiful lives of parties and politics during the Thatcher years. Over the course of three episodes spanning four years in the mid-eighties, we follow Nick's two homosexual love affairs in a time of promiscuity and carelessness, until the AIDS crisis and a bout of scandal threaten life as he has come to know it.
