Director Joseph Losey made of the most authentic period films with this tale about a forbidden love in the English countryside where a young boy looses his innocence as he learns the value of friendship when he's caught between the class system that keeps two lovers apart. Losey and writer Harold Pinter let the film breath from the restraints of theater that plagues most period films where everything feels forced. The excellent cast includes Julie Christie and Alan Bates in the lead roles along with Dominic Guard as the young boy who holds himself well against the stellar pros.
