A movingly evocative relationship film, illuminating in its unsentimental clarity and compassion. Oscar nominations were accorded Schlesinger, screenwriter Penelope Gilliatt, and leads Peter Finch and Glenda Jackson; the latter portray middle-class Londoners, each of whom is romantically involved with younger Murray Head. Ready for his close-up, a teenaged Day-Lewis makes a blink-and-you’ll-miss-him screen debut as one of three youths keying a parked car.
