 Ismail Merchant--Biography
Following the commercial and critical enthusiasm for the Forster adaptations A Room with a View (1985), Maurice (1987), and Howards End (1992), the teams produced the immaculate historic reconstruction Remains of the Day (1993), which like Howards End pitted actors Emma Thompson and Anthony Hopkins in a high-rent battle of the sexes.
Their first under a deal with Disney, Jefferson in Paris (1995), met with critical dismissals and an underwhelming box office, and other attempts, from The Wild Party (1975) to My Little Girl (1986) to Slaves of New York (1989), hardly made a dent in film history.
This Bombay-born producer is one half of the prolific Merchant/Ivory team which has been responsible for scores of literate, beautifully shot, languid, and sometimes erotic films since the mid-'60s.
