continues a season of films new to television starring
Brilliantly transposed to the screen by its original author, Harold Pinter 's scathing view of the mores of middle-class marriage relies on a classic standby of cinematic technique - the flashback. The story covers the period from 1980, reaching back to the early 70s as the sequence of betrayals is unfolded. This serio-comic examination of sexual infidelity is brought vividly to life by three of Britain's finest actors and by the skilful and unobtrusive direction of David Jones.
Screenplay by HAROLD PINTER based on his own play
