Product Description

 
While searching for rare English books, New York writer Helene Hanff's (Anne Bancroft) letter to a London bookstore, run by Frank Doel (Anthony Hopkins), begins a relationship between the two that spans two decades and two continents. Although their personalities and cultures are miles apart, their friendship blossoms into a deeper affection. Bancroft's performance earned her the BAFTA award, the British equivalent of the Oscar. Based on James Roose-Evans's play, which was based on Helene Hanff's memoir.

Date of Review:  Nov 18, 2000
Review: Dear Anthony Hopkins, I have misplaced the coaster on my coffee table, and now guests are leaving rings on it from their coke bottles. Could you send me a copy of "Obscura's Compedium", for them to use instead? It would also serve as an excellent...

Date of Review:  May 8, 2000
Review: Sitting at her typewriter in New York, Helene Hanff (Anne Bancroft) sends off a letter to a stuffy bookstore in England that specializes in rare used books. Helene, oddly a true Bancroft-type character, is witty and charming and just a little bit...
