What happens

A Room with a View is a 2007 British drama television film directed by Nicholas Renton and written by Andrew Davies, based on E. M. Forster's 1908 novel of the same name. It was announced in 2006 and filmed in the summer of 2007. A Room with a View was broadcast on 4 November 2007, on ITV. Laura Mackie, ITV director of drama, has said that this adaptation "captures the spirit of Forster’s most memorable novel, but delivers it in a fresh, engaging way for a modern audience." It was the first time real-life father and son Timothy and Rafe Spall had acted together. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
