James Ivory in person! With Bollywood on the rise, vagabond British Shakespeareans tour post-colonial India to dwindling audiences and a growing sense that an era has come to an end. Shashi Kapoor, Felicity Kendal, and Madhur Jaffrey form a triangle of lovers at the film’s heart, with a score composed by the great Satyajit Ray. A breezy and beguiling study, comedy, romance, elegy” (Alan Scherstuhl). 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive.

The World of James Ivory” presents highlights from across the seven-decade career of the acclaimed filmmaker, drawn from his personal collection of film prints donated to the archive in 2023.
