Quartet
In a quaint English retirement home for former musicians, the annual Verdi birthday concert provides a fragile equilibrium—until the arrival of Jean, a celebrated opera singer and former wife of resident baritone Reggie. Her stubborn refusal to sing throws the established quartet into delightful disarray, exposing decades of artistic rivalry and lingering affection amidst playful jabs and pointed silences. The film isn't about a grand performance, but the tender, often humorous struggle to reconcile past hurts and rediscover the joy of collaboration in life’s twilight years. It’s a gently observed exploration of aging, artistic ego, and the bittersweet comfort found in shared history, culminating in a surprisingly heartwarming realization that even imperfect harmony can be profoundly beautiful.
