What happens?

Screen favorites Willem Dafoe (SPIDER-MAN, SHADOW OF THE VAMPIRE) and Miranda Richardson (THE HOURS, SLEEPY HOLLOW) deliver star performances in this passionately rendered story based on writer T.S. Eliot's tempestuous relationship with his first wife, Vivienne, the woman who inspired his greatest work. Widely praised by critics and nominated for two Academy Awards(R), TOM & VIV is the story of their turbulent love affair. It reveals the unspeakable secret that finally drove Eliot to choose between standing by his beautiful yet troubled wife, or letting her go. Deeply felt and exquisitely acted, TOM & VIV is a story of love and commitment .... and passion's ultimate price.
