Synopsis
From the 1970s ITV series Laurence Olivier Presents..., this adaptation of the early stage and TV play by Harold Pinter stars Olivier, Alan Bates, Malcolm McDowell and Helen Mirren abd us directed by Michael Apted. Set in the exclusive and prestigious world of West End boutique owners and fashion designers, the story begins with a sinister, anonymous phone call that disturbs Harry Kane (Olivier) at four o’clock in the morning. It foreshadows an ominously deepening mystery where the ‘truth’, as such, becomes increasingly hard to establish. DVD extras include a 1998 edition of The South Bank Show in which Pinter gives a frank interview to Melvyn Bragg.
