About the Movie
Atonement on DVD:
Keira Knightley and James McAvoy star in this drama adapted from Ian McEwan's novel. The movie opens in 1935 at the Tallis family's British country estate, where college-aged Cecilia Tallis (Knightley) becomes aware that she and Robbie Turner (McAvoy), the son of a servant, are sexually attracted to each other. But 13-year-old Briony gets upset and confused about what's going on between her sister Cecilia and Robbie, and the younger girl does something that ruins all three of their lives. The story takes decades to fully play out, and three actresses play Briony as she ages.
