The Late Film: The Sandpiper

on BBC One London

starring
Elizabeth Taylor Richard Burton Eva Marie Saint with Charles Bronson Robert Webber
Dr Edward Hewitt is a respected principal of a small private school, but his passionate affair with the beautiful and unconventional Laura Reynolds threatens to destroy his career - and his marriage.
The wild and colourful beauty of the Big Sur region of California forms a dramatic background to this unashamedly romantic drama, one of several films the Burtons made together during the 60s, which features one of the movies' most haunting theme songs.
