From The Remains of the Day: Emma Thompson walks a bike, in the role of Miss Kenton, a spirited housekeeper who goes to work in a manor managed by a deeply devoted but emotionally repressed butler — played by Anthony Hopkins. Both Thompson and Hopkins received Oscar nominations for their efforts. The film, released by Columbia in 1993, was adapted from the Booker Prize-winning Kazuo Ishiguro novel of the same name.
