Helena Bonham Carter delivered an Academy Award-nominated performance in Hackers director Iain Softley's adaptation of Henry James' 1902 novel.
Kate (Carter) is secretly betrothed to a struggling journalist, Merton Densher (Linus Roache). But she knows her Aunt Maude (Charlotte Rampling) will never approve of the match, since Kate's deceased mother has lost all her money in a marriage to a degenerate opium addict. When Kate meets a terminally ill American heiress named Millie (Alison Elliott) traveling through Europe, she comes up with a conniving plan to have both love and wealth.
The film also earned Oscar nominations for its adapted screenplay, cinematography and costume design.
