Perspective
A programme on the arts
13: The all-embracing screen
In his new film Sunday. Bloody Sunday John Schlesinger treats the triangle situation in a way that would have been unthinkable in a public medium only a few years ago. Are today's film-makers working on the frontiers of what is acceptable or merely responding to greater public broadmindedness? Is there likely to be a return to romance and nostalgia?
Dilys Powell discusses with JOHN TREVELYAN and KAREL REISZ the current range of themes in the cinema.
