In North London, an all-male beehive of inactivity is ruled with a foul mouth and an iron fist by the abusive Max (Paul Rogers) and his brother, the priggish palace eunuch Sam (Cyril Cusack). Rounding out The Homecoming's "situation tragedy" are the sons: [punch-drunk demolition man Joey (Terence Rigby) and the pimp-smart Lenny, played by the magnificent Ian Holm (Alien, The Sweet Hereafter). When the prodigal son Teddy (Michael Jayson) brings his wife Ruth (Vivien Merchant) home to meet the family, it unleashes a tangled web of Freudian dread, venal family values, and naked neediness that could only come from the mind of Harold Pinter. Special Features: Interview with cinematographer David Watkin / Interview with Edie Landau / "Ely Landau: In Front of the Camera, " a promotional film for the American Film Theatre / Gallery of trailers for the American Film Theatre.
