If you loved Surviving Picasso, try The Remains of the Day
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by James Ivory, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Surviving Picasso, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Remains of the Day is
English countryside, pre-war summer, a polished silver tray. A butler's domain of etiquette and a housekeeper's arrival test his restraint. James Ivory's subtle direction reveals the cracks in a servant's composure.
