The Gators are a sufficiently ancient English family who love their dogs more than their children and never cry at funerals. They’re also pretty terrible with money, despite having encountered quite a lot of it. After an ill-advised scheme from their youngest son sees their grand private members club fall into financial troubles, they’re thrilled to meet the young, exotic Wolffs: an outrageously rich and suspiciously beautiful couple, recently arrived in London from New York. But over a series of debaucherous holidays, as the families’ lives and fates intertwine, it becomes increasingly difficult to tell who is really using who — and just what each player might do to maintain their sacred way of life.
An elegant and sparkling comedy of manners, What Fun globe-trots around the playgrounds of the ultra-wealthy, from St. Moritz to Tuscany to Cap Ferret (only in August, of course), and discovers a family haunted across the generations by expectations, insecurities, absurdities and misplaced affections. Thick with observational humor and witty social commentary, it tells the story of a family, the story of a class, the story of a country—and the story of a club. Which, in this particular case, all turn out to be the exact same thing.
