My Uncle Silas

Albert Finney brings to life the loveable Uncle Silas, a charming old rascal whose love of alcohol and women make him a bad influence on his 10-year-old nephew Edward, who has come to the country to spend the summer with him. Together, Silas and Edward recognize the sophistication of Victorian-era England... and then set out to ignore it and have fun. Sure, the old ladies huff and sneer, but that is because they don't know what Edward knows: that the uncouth Silas is a diamond in the rough with a heart of gold. (Verleiher-Text)
