Summary of A Chorus of Disapproval
Recently widowed, Guy Jones (Jeremy Irons) auditions for a local production of "The Beggar's Opera" to help him get on with life. Dafydd Ap Llewellyn is his madcap Welsh director. As they try to bring the Scarsborough Theater back to life, Guy stumbles into an affair with fellow cast member, Fay (Jenny Seagrove). Meanwhile, Dafydd tries to cope with the idiocy of his players. As showtime grows near, the tension between Guy and Dafydd comes to a head when Dafydd finds out that Guy is also having an affair with his wife, Hannah (Prunella Scales).
A CHORUS OF DISAPPROVAL is a hilarious, intelligent film. Director Michael Winner comes full circle from making rip-roaring action films (DEATH WISH, SCORPIO) and returns to the realm of social commentary with this film. In the tradition of THE GIRL GETTERS, and I'LL NEVER FORGET WHAT'S 'ISNAME, A CHORUS OF DISAPPROVAL examines death, mourning, and the the flaws of humanity.
