New Trailer for James Ivory’s ‘The Europeans’ Restoration Re-Release

“I want you to make me a promise: not to get excited.” Cohen Media Group & Cohen Film Collection have debuted an official trailer for a 2K restoration re-release of the classic 1979 film The Europeans, the first in James Ivory’s Henry James triptych. Set in the fall of 1850, a few miles outside Boston. The household of the dour Mr. Wentworth receives two unannounced visitors from Europe, Eugenia and Felix, the daughter and son of his half sister. The film deals with “the social and moral clashes between the New World and the Continent.” This first premiered at the 1979 Cannes Film Festival, and went on to earn one Academy Award nomination for Best Costume Design. The costume design and its production design “solidified the ‘state-of-the-art’ (and impeccably researched) period trappings that have since become synonymous with Merchant Ivory.” Starring Lee Remick, Robin Ellis, Wesley Addy, and Tim Choate. Enjoy the new trailer below. ›››
