Thank God It's Queer revisits the repression of Edwardian England—and those brave enough to fight it—with MAURICE (1987)! Directed by James Ivory from E.M. Forster's wildly queer, posthumous novel, MAURICE (pronounced "Morris") follows the titular character (James Wilby) as he falls in love with Cambridge colleague Clive (Hugh Grant). Years later, Clive has moved on and married, but Maurice refuses to let go of who he is—and then he meets Clive's new gamekeeper, Alec Scudder (Rupert Graves). Co-starring Ben Kingsley and Simon Callow, and presented in a gorgeous new 4K restoration, MAURICE is a lush, romantic fantasy about radical self-actualization and more timely than ever before.
