Contents.Plot In 1958 post-war Britain, Stevens, the of Darlington Hall, receives a letter from Miss Kenton, a former colleague employed as the some twenty years earlier, now separated from her husband. Their former employer Lord Darlington has died a broken man, his reputation destroyed after he was exposed as a sympathizer, and his stately country manor has been sold to a retired United States, Mr.

Stevens is granted permission to borrow Lewis', and he sets off to the to see Miss Kenton, in the hope that she will return as housekeeper.The film flashes back to Kenton's arrival as housekeeper in the 1930s. The ever-efficient Stevens manages the household well, taking great pride in and deriving his entire identity from his profession. Miss Kenton, too, proves to be a valuable servant, and she is equally efficient and strong-willed, but also warmer and less repressed. Stevens and Kenton occasionally butt heads, particularly when she observes that Stevens' father (also a former butler) is in failing health and no longer able to perform his duties, which Stevens stubbornly refuses to acknowledge. Stevens' professional dedication is fully displayed when, while his father lies dying, he steadfastly continues his butler duties.Relations between Stevens and Kenton eventually thaw, and it becomes clear she has feelings for him. Despite their proximity and shared purpose, Stevens' outward detachment remains unchanged; his first and only loyalty is to his service as Lord Darlington's butler.

In a scene of agonized repression, Miss Kenton embarrasses Stevens when she catches him reading a book. Curious, she forces it out of his hand, and finds to her disappointment it is an ordinary romance novel; Stevens explains to Miss Kenton he was reading it only to improve his vocabulary, and asks her not to invade his private time again.Meanwhile, Darlington Hall is regularly frequented by politicians of the, and many of guests are like-minded, -sympathizing British and European aristocrats, with the exception of the more pragmatic Congressman Lewis, who does not share the 'noble instincts' of Lord Darlington and his guests. Lewis informs the 'gentleman politicians' in his midst that they are meddling amateurs and that 'Europe has become the arena of ' and warns them they are 'headed for disaster.' Later, Lord Darlington's aristocratic guests grill Stevens about his political knowledge to prove that the lower classes are ignorant and unworthy to have an opinion, but Stevens steadfastly refuses to acknowledge that he has ever listened to their conversations, being too busy serving.Darlington later meets Prime Minister and the German Ambassador, and uses his influence to try to broker a policy of towards, based on his belief that Germany had been unfairly treated by the following the and only desires peace. In the midst of these events, and after overhearing Sir Geoffrey Wren praising, Darlington suddenly requests that two newly-appointed maids, both refugees, should be dismissed, despite Stevens's mild protest that they are good workers. Nevertheless, Stevens carries out Lord Darlington's command, despite a horrified Miss Kenton threatening to resign in protest. Miss Kenton later confides in Stevens that she has no family and nowhere to go should she leave Darlington Hall, and is ashamed to not follow up on her threat to resign.

Stevens does not mention that he disagreed with Lord Darlington's order and leaves Miss Kenton with the impression that he didn't care about the girls' fate.Lord Darlington's godson, journalist Reginald Cardinal, is appalled by the nature of the secret meetings in Darlington Hall. Concurring with Congressman Lewis' earlier protestations, Cardinal tells Stevens that Lord Darlington is a pawn, being used by the Nazis. Despite Cardinal's indignation, Stevens does not denounce or criticise his master, feeling it is not his place to judge his employer's honorable intentions, even if they are incorrect. Later, Lord Darlington expresses regret for having dismissed Ilsa and Irma, the two German-Jewish maids. He asks Stevens to locate them and Stevens questions Miss Kenton as to the maids' whereabouts. (It is revealed they had returned to Germany, but their ultimate fate is unknown.)Eventually, Miss Kenton forms a relationship with a former co-worker, Tom Benn, who proposes marriage and asks Miss Kenton to move away with him to run a coastal boarding house.

Miss Kenton mentions this proposal to Stevens, in effect offering him an ultimatum, but Stevens will not admit his feelings, offering Miss Kenton only his congratulations. Miss Kenton leaves Darlington Hall prior to the outbreak of the. Before Miss Kenton's departure, Stevens finds her crying in frustration, but the only response he can muster is to call her attention to a neglected domestic task.En route to meeting Miss Kenton in 1958, when asked by locals about his former employer, Stevens at first denies having served or even having met Lord Darlington, but later admits to having served and respected him. He says that, while Lord Darlington was unable to correct his terrible error, he is now on his way in the hope that he can correct his own. He meets Miss Kenton (though separated, still Mrs. Benn), and they reminisce. Stevens mentions in conversation that Lord Darlington's godson, Reginald Cardinal, was killed in the war.

He also says Lord Darlington died from a broken heart after the war, having sued a newspaper for, losing the suit and his reputation in the process. Stevens reveals that in his declining years, Lord Darlington at times failed to recognise Stevens and carried on conversations with no one else in the room.Miss Kenton declines Stevens's offer to return to Darlington Hall, wishing instead to remain near her grown daughter, whom she has just that day learned is pregnant. She also implies that she will go back to her husband, because, despite being unhappy in their marriage for many years, in all the world he needs her the most. As they part, Miss Kenton is emotional, while Stevens is still unable to demonstrate any feeling. Back in Darlington Hall, Lewis asks Stevens if he remembers much of the old days, to which Stevens replies that he was too busy serving. A pigeon then becomes trapped in the hall, and is eventually freed by the two men, leaving both Stevens and Darlington Hall far behind.Cast.

Some of Pinter's script was used in the film, but, while Pinter was paid for his work, he asked to have his name removed from the credits, in keeping with his contract.Christopher C.

Hudgins observes: 'During our 1994 interview, Pinter told Steven H. Gale and me that he had learned his lesson after the revisions imposed on his script for, which he has decided not to publish. When his script for The Remains of the Day was radically revised by the - partnership, he refused to allow his name to be listed in the credits' (125).Though no longer the director, Nichols remained associated with the project as one of its producers.Settings.

Music Room of Powderham Castle in 1983A number of were used as locations for the film, partly owing to the persuasive power of Ismail Merchant, who was able to cajole permission for the production to borrow houses not normally open to the public. Among them were for the exterior of the house and the driveway, (staircase, hall, music room, bedroom; used for the aqua-turquoise stairway scenes), (library and dining room) and (servants' quarters, conservatory, entrance hall)., the production designer, scouted most of these locations. Scenes were also shot in, which stood in for. The pub where Mr Stevens stays is the Hop Pole in; the shop featured is also in Limpley Stoke. The pub where Miss Kenton and Mr Benn meet is.Characters The character of Sir Geoffrey Wren is based loosely on that of Sir, a British fascist active in the 1930s. Wren is depicted as a strict vegetarian. Also appears in the film.

Lord Darlington tells Stevens that Halifax approved of the polish on the silver, and Halifax himself later appears when Darlington meets secretly with the German Ambassador and his aides at night. Halifax was a chief architect of the British policy of appeasement from 1937 to 1939.

The character of Congressman Jack Lewis in the film is a composite of two separate American characters in Kazuo Ishiguro's novel: Congressman Lewis (who attends the pre-WW2 conference in Darlington Hall), and Mr Farraday, who succeeds Lord Darlington as master of Darlington Hall.Soundtrack The Remains of the Dayby. 'In November 1994, Pinter wrote, 'I've just heard that they are bringing another writer into the ' ' film. It doesn't surprise me.' Pinter's contract contained a clause to the effect that the film company could bring in another writer, but that in such a case he could withdraw his name (which is exactly the case with the film The Remains of the Day-he had insisted on this clause since the bad experience with revisions made to his script); he has never been given any reason as to why another writer was brought in' (Gale 352). Hudgins adds: 'We did not see Pinter's name up in lights when Lyne's Lolita finally made its appearance in 1998. Pinter goes on in the March 13 1995 letter to Hudgins to state that 'I have never been given any reason at all as to why the film company brought in another writer,' again quite similar to the equally ungracious treatment that he received in the Remains of the Day situation' (125). the essay on the film The Remains of the Day published in Gale's collection by Edward T.
