It stars Gary Oldman as Orton and Alfred Molina as Orton's lover (and eventual murderer) Kenneth Halliwell.Told in flashbacks which trace Orton and Halliwell's initial meeting at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, when the older and more worldly Halliwell takes eighteen-year-old Orton as both a lover and a Protégé. Eventually Orton's writing career takes off, turning the power dynamic in their relationship on its head. Halliwell grows increasingly insecure and smothering as Orton grows more popular and successful, leading to an ultimately fatal downward spiral. | |

A Date with Rosie Palms: Orton's early experiments with self-pleasuring are detailed in his diary. The audience hears about them in the very plummy and cultured tones of John Lahr's mother in law. | |

Lover and Beloved: Halliwell and Orton, respectively, at the beginning of their relationship. Orton outgrowing the "beloved" role is the primary source of the film's conflict. | |
