Synopsis:

Inspired by the true story of tobacco billionairess Doris Duke and her devoted Irish butler Bernard Lafferty, the touching HBO Films drama "Bernard and Doris" stars Oscar winner Susan Sarandon ("Dead Man Walking") and Oscar nominee Ralph Fiennes ("The English Patient"). After failed relationships with her previous waitstaff, Doris meets Lafferty, fresh out of rehab and without a penny to his name. She takes him on as her butler and he is put in the unenviable position of having to convince the notoriously demanding Duke to keep him in her employ.

Directed by Oscar nominee Bob Balaban ("Gosford Park"), the film effectively captures the elegance of a bygone era and is scored with countless musical standards, such as Peggy Lee's "The Best Is Yet To Come." "Bernard and Doris" tells the witty and endearing tale of an unconventional bond between a society "princess" and her flawed "pauper" of a butler.
