Summary |
The complex relationships among an Oxford professor, one of his students, and the young woman who captivates both of them is the subject of this difficult but rewarding drama. Director Joseph Losey and writer Harold Pinter had previously collaborated on 1963's The Servant, and they surrounded this recasting of a Nicholas Mosley novel with a similar atmosphere of ominous mystery. The story is presented through flashbacks and disconnected memories that trace the characters' interactions. Nominated for Best English-Language Foreign Film at the **Golden Globes** and Best British Film at the **BAFTA Awards.** WInner of the Jury Grand Prize and Nominated for the Palme d'Or at the **Cannes Film Festival.** *"Bring a date, because you'll need to talk this one through." - Joshua Rothkopf, **Time Out*** |
