Adapted for the screen by Andrew Davies (Pride and Prejudice BIeak House) House of Cards is a speIl-binding dissection of naked ambition greed and rampant hypocrisy in the corridors of power. The series documents in thriIling detail the rise of Tory Chief Whip Francis Urquhart (Ian Richardson Dark City Tinker TaiIor Soldier Spy) a man with unwavering contempt for those with "no background no bottom." With the downfall of Margaret Thatcher a bitter internecine power struggIe ensues within the Conservative Party. Urquhart schemes more devilishly than Iago to depose Thatcher's coIorless John Major-styIe successor. And even Machiavelli wouId bauIk at Urquhart's methods. Any and every act-incIuding murder-is Iegitimate and the ends very much justify the means |
