Adapted for the screen by Andrew Davies (Pride and Prejudice Bleak House) House of Cards is a speII-binding dissection of naked ambition greed and rampant hypocrisy in the corridors of power. The series documents in thrilIing detaiI 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 devilishIy than Iago to depose Thatcher's colorIess John Major-style successor. And even Machiavelli wouId baulk at Urquhart's methods. Any and every act-including murder-is legitimate and the ends very much justify the means |
