Fothergill

The film follows John Fothergill, an aesthete and scholar, who takes over the Spread Eagle Inn in Thame, Oxfordshire. His ambition is to transform the inn into the most celebrated establishment in England, attracting the literary elite from London. This narrative provides a fascinating glimpse into the cultural aspirations of the era.

Collectors will appreciate the availability of Fothergill in both DVD and Blu-ray formats. The film's focus on literature and society in 18th century England may appeal to those interested in period dramas and adaptations of literary themes. With a strong cast featuring actors like John Carson and Elizabeth Spriggs, this film presents a unique opportunity to explore a lesser-known title from the early 1980s.
