The Winter Guest (US Version) DVD Region 1

A dense, filling slice-of-life set in a tiny snowbound Scottish burg, where four pairs of characters grapple with various aspects of human hardship. Thompson plays opposite Law, her actual mother, as a recently widowed photographer whose haze of grief has driven a wedge into their relationship. Rickman's directorial debut, adapted from the stage play by Sharman MacDonald.

"...Rickman has brought the cloistered stage play to vibrant life...his work with the actors is universally superb..." - Kim, Williamson (Box Office Critic), Box Office, 12/01/1997

"...[Law and Thompson] give touchingly true performances..." - Peter, Travers (Rolling Stone Critic), Rolling Stone, 02/05/1998

"...Ravishing, resonant images.....What is most striking about Rickman's debut is his control of mood, delicately teasing out the metaphorical possibilities of freezing and ice..." - Demetrios, Matheou (Film Critic), Sight and Sound, 01/01/1998

"...The actresses share looks and even body language..." - Mike, Clark (USA Today Critic), USA Today, 12/26/1997

"...A poetic, affecting film....[Law and] Thompson transcend..." -- Rating: B+ - Michael, Sauter (Entertainment Weekly Critic), Entertainment Weekly, 07/17/1998

"...[The film] luxuriously drinks in a magnificent desolation that conjures up somber thoughts of mortality and human loss..." - Stephen, Holden (New York Times Critic), New York Times, 12/23/1997

"...Phyllida Law and Emma Thompson are mother and daughter in real life, and in the film they have the familiarity of a lifelong couple....[Rickman] has a great command here of look and tone..." - Roger, Ebert (Critic and screenwriter), Chicago Sun-Times, 01/16/1998
