Now showing in our cinemas, 'Can You Ever Forgive Me?' features a career-best performance from Richard E. Grant, clearly channelling Withnail, the role that launched his career. Rediscover the highly quotable film that has since become a British cult classic.
Two down-on-their-luck actors find solace in drink and other substances. Seeking respite from their uneventful lives they escape up north to Penrith to Withnail's uncle's stone cottage. Faced with no modern conveniences, a bunch of oddball locals, and a surprise visit from an amorous "Uncle Monty", their wits are tested, along with their friendship.
