One of my all-time favorite movies! I watched this movie with Korean sub some ten years ago. Before this title is released locally, I only had a dvd with English subtitles. So it was only second time that I watched this movie with Korean subtitles. Some of the lines I misunderstood. Other lines, the translator of this dvd got it wrong. Mask was used for some scenes because of frontal nudity. Though I felt a little disappointed at the translation, I'm glad this title is released atn the local market at last.

Maurice is a James Ivory film based on the novel of same title by E. M. Forster. The main Character Maurice is a Cambridge student from rich family. But after a short affair with senior student Clive, he gets dropped out of Uinversity. And he hegitates to accept his sexual desire for men. But while staying at Clive's, he has a visitor at night, Alec, a gamekeeper who works for Clive. They make love and at the end they decide to live together whatever it may bring. I saw this film when I was a Uinversity student. I could relate to Maurice so much and the movie really shook me up and down. I read the book in English before the book got translated into Korean. I bought the book in Korean, as soon as they released it. I bought the DVD from a British online shop, maybe Blackstar or something. So you can tell I'm a huge fan of this book and this movie. And lucky me that one of my friends got me two 'Maurice' books in English.
