About The Longest Memory
Whitechapel works as a slave on a Virginia plantation; he has been given the name of his owner, Mr Whitechapel. The plantation's overseer is the violent and hard-drinking Sanders, embittered by the death of his wife. When Whitechapel's beautiful young bride attracts Sanders's attention, the stage is set for a tragedy that spans generations.
Directed by Mark Harrison, The Longest Memory leans on a strong ensemble — Joe Seneca, Fidelis Morgan, Daniel Massey — 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 screen titles of 1997.
