By 1916, conscription had decimated the choral society in a small Yorkshire town, and the group's backers reluctantly opted to take on gay Germanophile Henry Guthrie (Ralph Fiennes) as new choirmaster. As Guthrie recruited teenagers and wounded soldiers as replacements and anglicized their repertoire, he'd quiet the doubters and give the war-weary locals a rallying point. Nicholas Hytner directs from Alan Bennett's script; Roger Allam, Mark Addy, Alun Armstrong, Simon Russell Beale co-star. 113 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English, Spanish, French.
