At first I was confused by the doctor treating an upper middle class family in Edwardian England being Asian.
So writes a character in the new Howards End, a BBC mini-series adapted from E.M. Forster’s novel by screenwriter Kenneth Lonergan (Manchester by the Sea) and director Hettie Macdonald (Doctor Who), and airing over the next four Sundays on Starz.
This realization doesn’t detract from our feelings for the Basts, but it does make us think about things that Leonard probably doesn’t. 'Howards End': TV Review.

(Speaking of a silver vinaigrette given to Margaret by Henry, Helen sarcastically says, “I’m sure the silver didn’t come from an African silver mine,” and Tibby adds, “I’m sure somebody died making it.”) It also recontextualizes the many conversations between the Schlegels and the Basts about money, so that we think about the colonialism and racism that the characters would rather not discuss. Actually, at Oniton in Shropshire – it’s hard to keep up with the Wilcox’s property portfolio, I know.

If they're going to go so radical in one aspect but then have the rest of the story stick the book, its a very jarring thing when it swings back and forth.
We counted three “titty meat” references. For the real thing watch Merchant Ivory's beautiful and respectful 1992 film adaption of E.M. Forster's Howards End. I don't know what has happened to BBC. Instead, this version finds its updated modernity in very slight touches and a lower-key representational view of those Edwardian England days. Those nuances are the linchpin of why Howards End works. User Ratings
YOUTUBE. Issues of social class run throughout Forster’s novel — there’s much discussion of social mobility, the responsibility of the fortunate toward the less fortunate, the morality of the redistribution of wealth, and the need for culture to be democratically accessible, and at various points in the story, accusations of condescension, exploitation, indifference, and cruelty get tossed around when one character mistreats or runs afoul of another — but there are no characters of color in the novel, which means that class gets examined without the complication of race.
Featuring a surprise duet with Noah Cyrus. I'm of two minds on this. But the pace, and the long scenes, are a big part of its strength; it’s bold rather than ponderous. Tibby is now learning Chinese, of course. While Margaret becomes more involved with the Wilcox family, Helen is deeply distraught to learn that Leonard Bast is now unemployed, impoverished and on the brink of starvation after he changed jobs on the Schlegels' advice.

After the death of Mrs Wilcox in the winter of 1906, her family is further thrown by her final request regarding Howards End.
Quinn is particularly intriguing: His anxious, slightly resentful face indicates how much of Leonard’s desire for upward mobility is motivated by resentment.
