Death at the Dinner Party
When a star psychology student dies during a faculty party, Andrea Gibbs and her son Ethan are drawn into the dangerous manipulations of renowned professor Alan Jackson, a man determined to bury the truth at any cost.
The Curse of Steptoe
In the early 1960s aspiring stage actor Harry H. Corbett jumps at the chance to play junk-dealer Harold Steptoe in a television comedy show 'Steptoe and Son'. However, the show's success proves to be a poisoned chalice for him, type-casting him and thwarting his stage ambitions. Wilfrid Brambell, the actor playing his father, is marginalized in a different way. He is a gay man in an England where homosexuality is still illegal.
