Sunday, Bloody Sunday

Synopsis
Alex (Jackson) and Daniel (Peter Finch), both embark on an affair with Bob Elkin (Murray Head), a young artist. Bob plays fair, dividing his time between his two lovers, each of whom are aware of the existence of a rival. Alex and Daniel know that Bob is not really worthy of their love but they are both seemingly willing to settle for the arrangement in hand. Director John Schlesinger uses this fascinating character study to explore just how much peoples’ attitudes to relationships changed over two generations. Nominated for three more Oscars and winner of 5 BAFTAS including Best Actor, Actress, Film and Director.
