I remember seeing Another Country during its original run and really liking it. Having recently revisited it I'm wondering if I should have just left well enough alone, because I do not feel it has held up well in the 30+ years since that first viewing. Yes, I still enjoyed this film but just not to the degree I did originally. It does still look good and I still find the inner-workings and machinations of the English public school world quite interesting. It's the story itself that seems a but thinner to me now. The reasons given for the Guy Bennett character defecting to the Soviet Union seems a bit flimsy and reactionary. It now appears to be a case of style over substance where Another Country is concerned. Still, if you're curious then do check it out and see for yourself.
