The last Waugh movie I saw was "A Handful of Dust"
A group of BYTs in 1930s England party to the max. An aspiring author attempts to marry his sweetheart but lacks funds.
Many familiar faces. Fry is a good director - some scenes were very impressive. Lively movie, worth a second viewing. Makes modern times appear dull in comparison. Reminds me of early Ken Russell. Funny and satirical.
Recommended.
