Sunday Bloody Sunday

Recently divorced career woman Alex Greville (Glenda Jackson) begins a romantic relationship with glamorous mod artist Bob Elkin (Murray Head), fully aware that he's also intimately involved with middle-aged doctor Daniel Hirsh (Peter Finch). For both Alex and Daniel, the younger man represents a break with their repressive pasts, and though both know that Bob is seeing both of them, neither is willing to let go of the youth and vitality he brings to their otherwise stable lives.

• " For me, Sunday, Bloody Sunday is far and away the best film John Schlesinger has ever made: the surest, the truest, the most uncluttered. " – Margaret Hinxman

• " A most impressive achievement, superbly edited by its maker into a whole that is almost as satisfactory as its parts. " – Derek Malcolm

• " Sunday Bloody Sunday is the song of those left behind, not the one doing the leaving. " – Kimberley Jones
