Plot

Rome star James Purefoy steps into the impeccably tailored suit of the Regency England dandy who forever changed male fashion in director Philippa Lowthrope's adaptation of author Ian Kelly's acclaimed biography. In an era when men relied on powders and perfumes in order to appear well groomed and attractive, Beau Brummell's comparatively simplistic regiment of common-sense elegance and frequent washing was downright revolutionary. Matthew Rhys co-stars as Lord Byron. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
