Keep The Aspidistra Flying (A Merry War) - Part 1

Gordon Comstock and Rosemary are a quirky 1930's couple with very modern ideas. He's an eccentric budding poet who decides to quit his nice middle class job as an advertising writer in a bid to embrace poverty, poetry and art. Meanwhile, his long suffering girlfriend Rosemary (Helena Bonham Carter), works furiously to keep her career and their unconventional relationship on the rails. Their odd but amusingly touching romance bizarrely evolves around Comstock's passion to escape that dreaded symbol of middle class respectability... The Aspidistra.

For entertainment purpose only. Helenaists watch out for BOVEX lol.

I'm a new Helena fan and I just keep going down her filmography and watching movie after movie and finding that many are on youtube...it's been a week long marathon of Helena and possibly every single British actor/actress to grace the screen...thanks for loading all these

helena makes an awesome rosemary! not sure about the guy playing gordon, though. but seeing as this is one of my favorite books, i'm going to keep watching and give him the benefit of the doubt.

@LucyLovettLestrange No problem non-sequitor.

@xitsCASS I wasn't hating her or anything. But sure ;) ( I hope you're not mad or anything, didn't mean to offensive) This was how I became a HBC fan and begging your pardon if you like Kate Winslet. *blushes*

[xitsCASS]

Can people not hate on Kate Winslet? Let's just talk about how amazing Helena Bonham Carter is, k.

[mickeyprat]

I think Orwell would have hated this. But he didn't much like the book either (not that the two are REMOTELY similar in tone or atmosphere).

If you want to see Richard E Grant playing essentially the same character but with a far better script you're better off watching Withnail & I...

@SweeneyToddKicksAss  HBC is great and thanks for all of the HBC movie uploads! ;)

[SweeneyToddKicksAss]

@LucyLovettLestrange HBC does not take your opinion seriously, HBC is a non-sequitor. I am Funnybot.

@SweeneyToddKicksAss I'm not angry at you. I was just asking. KW lost my respect by deliberatly flaunting her relationship with Leonardo DiCaprio by doing Revolutionary Road. I love HBC because she doesnt take working with Johnny Depp and Tim Burton for granted.
