A dark drama, vividly portrayed by Liz Taylor and Richard Burton in the sixties, features George, a disillusioned professor, and Martha, his brutally acerbic wife who invite a younger couple over for drinks. George and Martha appear to be the perfect party hosts--they have a well-stocked bar and each possesses a rapier-sharp wit.
But when Nick, a new college professor on campus, and Honey, his mousy young wife arrive, their verbal sparring quickly degenerates into scathing attacks on each other -- and their guests.
Drawn together in their horror, Nick and Honey soon find themselves sucked into the spiral of buried resentments and unspoken rage that George and Martha have unleashed. As the seemingly perfect marriage of the young couple begins to reveal its many flaws, George and Martha find their own twisted bond within the mutual rancor.
