Full Plot Details

New Dehli, India, March 1947. The huge and stately Viceroy's Palace is like a beehive. Its five hundred employees are busy preparing the coming of Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas Mountbatten, 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma (Hugh Bonneville), who has just been appointed new (and last) Viceroy of India by Prime Minister Clement Attlee. Mountbatten, whose difficult task consists of overseeing the transition of British India to independence, arrives at the Palace, accompanied by Edwina (Gillian Anderson), his liberal-minded wife and Pamela (Lily Travers), his eighteen-year-old daughter. Meanwhile, in the staff quarters, a love story is born between Jeet Kumar (Manish Dayal), a Hindu, and Aalia Noor (Huma Qureshi), a Muslim beauty. Things will prove to be difficult, not to say very difficult, on the geopolitical and personal level.

Movie Reviews

Spirituality and Practice - 10/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA richly developed historical drama about the partitioning of India.
ABC Radio Brisbane - 9/10 by Matthew ToomeyA strength of the film is its balanced nature. While events may not have taken place precisely as depicted, you do see varying points of view in deciding the right path to independence.
indieWire - 8/10 by Ben CrollThis material could make for a powerful work, but Viceroy’s House is certainly not it.
Sydney Morning Herald - 8/10 by Sandra HallAnderson's performance is a meticulous assemblage of gestures and intonations -- stiff-necked posture together with an aristocratic drawl -- which sit oddly but believably with Edwina's liberal disposition and sharp instinct for game-playing.
Tribune News Service - 8/10 by Katie WalshThere's something pleasantly old-fashioned about "Viceroy's House." It feels like a Merchant Ivory period piece posing cultural questions within a safely cushioned environment. There are no guessing games, but also very little subtext.
Mark Reviews Movies - 8/10 by Mark DujsikA sprawling story of the final months of British rule over India in 1947, Viceroy's House attempts to mix the political and the personal with varying degrees of success.
Time Out - 8/10 by Dave CalhounAt the human level, this is shallow, and Chadha clumsily fuses political drama with romantic melodrama.
Flick Filosopher - 8/10 by MaryAnn JohansonSnappy, snappish historical drama about the partition of India rings with sly humor, dry cynicism, and a smack of relevance for today's divisive politics.
Buffalo News - 8/10 by Mark SommerBonnenville's steel-chinned and earnest portrayal of Mountbatten drives the film, matched by Gillian's compassionate presentation of Lady Edwina.
Times (UK) - 8/10 by Kate MuirA drama that observes the politicking in the run-up to the partition of India and Pakistan into separate Hindu-majority and Muslim-majority states.
