About Cream in My Coffee
Past and present intertwine: An elderly couple returns to the hotel where they became close when they were young and flashbacks to the earlier visit reveal the origins of both their pleasures and problems. Somewhere between the past and the present, Dennis Potter attempted to find "the shape of a life, of two lives..."
Directed by Gavin Millar, Cream in My Coffee leans on a strong ensemble — Peggy Ashcroft, Lionel Jeffries, Shelagh McLeod — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1980.
