A British period comedy-drama, Savage House sets its story in eighteenth-century England and keeps its tone pitched somewhere between drawing-room comedy and something considerably harsher. Peter Glanz directs, the running time is one hundred and fourteen minutes, and the K-Time catalogue lists it as a 2026 release.
What is Savage House about?
England in the eighteenth century supplies the setting: a country contending at once with an outbreak of pox and with the unrest of the Jacobite uprising. Placed against that background are Sir Chauncey and Lady Savage, a couple whose appetite for a better station in life runs well ahead of any clear view of what the climb costs or of who ends up paying for it. What follows is built out of decadence, irony and no small amount of bloodshed, the household's ambitions colliding with the disorder outside its walls. The catalogue files the work under comedy and drama, and its own description frames it as a dark satire pointed at class and power.
About the cast
Richard E. Grant heads the billed cast, with Claire Foy and Sebastian Armesto also credited. The catalogue record lists the three in that order and does not attach specific characters to specific performers, so this page names them without assigning roles. Peter Glanz is credited as director, and the production is British.
Context & significance
Two historical pressures frame the backdrop. A pox outbreak is one; the Jacobite uprising is the other, and both function as period setting rather than as subjects of historical study. Eighteenth-century England has long served as a workable frame for satire about rank, inheritance and the machinery that lifts a household above a line or drops it below one, and the pairing of comedy with drama in the genre listing points to material that moves between the two registers rather than settling in either. The runtime places the picture squarely in the standard feature range.
