Peter Grimes (2021): cast, story & where to watch
2021 · Film
Released in 2021, Peter Grimes is a notable film directed by Deborah Warner.
What it’s about. Based on a poem published in 1810 with more ethnographic than dramatic focus, Britten constructed a sombre parable about the conflict between the masses and the individual. The maritime atmosphere, the crudity of people’s lives and passions, and the complex, impenetrable personality of the protagonist come together in a tragedy which ferments and explodes in the din of silence and hearsay. New production of the Teatro Real, in co-production with the Royal Opera House Covent Garden of London, the Opéra national of Paris and the Teatro dell’Opera of Rome
Who’s in it. Peter Grimes stars Catherine Wyn-Rogers as Auntie, John Graham-Hall as Bob Boles, Jacques Imbrailo as Ned Keene and Rocío Pérez as First Niece.
