An artist (Glenda Jackson) and a teacher (Jennie Linden) get laid during the 1920s. |
Reviewed by Chris Tookey
|
| A typically annoying film by Ken Russell with hugely pretentious moments and little grasp of story-telling. The point of D.H. Lawrence's novel gets lost in all the naked running through wheatfields and nude wrestling in flickering firelight. Billy Williams's good-looking photography was Oscar-nominated. Larry Kramer's screenplay fails to impose a cinematic structure on some recalcitrant material, and unwisely keeps some of Lawrence's worst dialogue intact. Sample line... Glenda Jackson to Oliver Reed:" How are your thighs? Are they strong? Because I want to drown in hot, physical, naked flesh". | |
