Quartet [videorecording] / The Weinstein Company, BBC Films and DCM Productions present a Headline Pictures, Finola Dwyer Productions production in association with Decca and HanWay Films ; screenplay by Ronald Harwood ; produced by Finola Dwyer & Stewart Mackinnon ; directed by Dustin Hoffman.
The rumor circling the halls is that Beecham House (the home for retired musicians) is soon to play host to a new resident. Word is, it's a star. Reginald, Wilfred and Cecily are in for a special shock when the new arrival turns out to be none other than their former singing partner, Jean. Her subsequent career as a star soloist, and the ego that accompanied it, split up their long friendship and ended her marriage to Reggie, who takes the news of her arrival particularly hard.
