Fans of British writer Graham Greene's densely textured, morally ambiguous and ironic novels will relish Neil Jordan's brilliant version of The End of the Affair, Greene's most complex, most autobiographical, and arguably finest novel, previously brought to the screen by Edward Dmytryk in a severely flawed production in 1955. A faithful adaptation that captures the haunting spirit and religious nature of the 1951 novel, this erotic ghost story unfolds as a first-person account of the warped liaison between a selfish novelist and the adulterous wife of a civil servant, splendidly played by Ralph Fiennes, Julianne Moore, and Stephen Rea, respectively.
