Leave All Fair

1h 30m Drama, Biography 1985

AroView: Jane Birkin stars as Katherine Mansfield during her time in France in 1922 in this highly under-rated drama that is less a biopic than a treatise about the ethics of publishing and profiteering. The script is satisfyingly detailed and layered, and the film a fitting homage to Mansfield’s writing and legacy.

Synopsis: Following Katherine Mansfield’s posthumous instructions to her husband John Middleton Murry (Sir John Gielgud) regarding her work, and his subsequent handling of them, the film alternates between the publication of Mansfield’s letters 33 years after her death and memories of her in life.
