Storyline

In the style of Nashville, with its multiple interlocking stories, director Robert Altman reveals the two worlds of GOSFORD PARK. One is played out in the grounds, the dining hall and the bedrooms of the mansion, where the English aristocracy are enjoying their final fling. The other is a secret world below stairs, where the servants see and hear far more than they should - and more than they ever dare to admit. As the great house swings into action, we see and hear the unfolding events through the eyes and ears of the servants. When the weekend does not go to plan, the guests start to argue amongst themselves as the glittering fabric of their lives unravels. Then, when the host is murdered, the local detective finds that there is hardly anyone amongst the guests who did not have a reason to murder him...
