In the summer of 1956, 23-year-old Colin Clark (Eddie Redmayne of THE OTHER BOLEYN GIRL) joined the set of THE PRINCE AND THE SHOWGIRL as an assistant determined to make his way up in the film business. His diary, released 40 years later, documented the tense interactions between Sir Lawrence Olivier (Kenneth Branagh of HAMLET, VALKYRIE) and the iconic Marilyn Monroe (Michelle Williams of BLUE VALENTINE, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN). But a week was missing from that account, and this is the story of that week - an experience Clark will never forget. As he and Marilyn spend time together, she begins to shake off the insecurity that plagues her and exposes the many complex layers that have fascinated the world since her rise to fame.

Mrs. Dalloway excitedly attends to the final preparations for the party she is giving at her elegant London Home. As she reflects on the days when she was young and highly courted, she finds her life strangely intertwined with that of a tragic young man she will never meet but whose destiny will strike a chord of truth deep in her soul.

A unique and disturbing work, The Designated Mourner is the feature film version of the hugely successful play by Wallace Shawn which was first staged by David Hare at London?s Royal National Theatre with Mike Nichols (whose brilliant performance was the talk of the town) in the leading role of ?Jack.? The play has now been created anew for the screen by the same cast, writer, director and designer. Told almost entirely in direct address, the screenplay by Wallace Shawn is an astonishing tour-de-force, as enthralling as his earlier cult classic, My Dinner with Andr?? (written and performed with Andr?? Gregory). Directed by playwright/filmmaker David Hare, starring Miranda Richardson, David de Keyser and one of America?s most famous film directors, Mike Nichols, in his feature film acting debut, The Designated Mourner is a genuinely original, intimate, and compelling experience.
