The Great American Picture Show: Looking for Mr Goodbar

on BBC Two England

continues a major season of films new to television.
Tonight starring Diane Keaton with Tuesday Weld Richard Gere
Theresa Dunn leads two lives. By day she is a dedicated teacher of deaf children, by night she cruises singles bars in a desperate search for sexual and emotional fulfilment. Theresa has fled her stifling family background and taken a flat in downtown Manhattan.
The freedom she enjoys is a reaction to her fiercely
Catholic upbringing and a traumatic childhood illness, but it is also a 'freedom' that leads her to drugs, promiscuity and increasingly dangerous relationships.
Screenplay by FREDDIE FIELDS Based on the novel by JUDITH ROSSNER
Produced by FREDDIE FIELDS Directed by RICHARD BROOKS
(First showing on British television)
