DUSTIN HOFFMAN'S DIRECTORIAL DEBUT QUARTET is a joyous, entertaining and uplifting story about redefining old age and growing old with hope, showing how the human spirit remains undimmed even as the brightest stars start to fade. Lifelong friends Wilf (Billy Connolly) and Reggie (Tom Courtenay), together with former colleague Cissy (Pauline Collins), are residents of Beecham House, a home for retired opera singers. Every year on Verdi's birthday, the residents unite to give a concert to raise funds for their home. But when Jean Horton (Maggie Smith), a former grande dame of the opera fallen on hard times, also Reggie's ex-wife and the fourth and most celebrated member of their former quartet, moves into the home to everyone's surprise, the plans for this year's concert start to unravel. QUARTET had it's world premiere at Toronto International Film Festival on 9th September.
