Couple of things to let you know first. I read this as part of a reading challenge for the year. It was randomly picked based on a title with a day of the week or month in the title. I confess to being pleased with a title called Sunday Bloody Sunday. You see, I kind of have a thing for Irish history and I thought it was going to have something to do with what went down in Derry. Also, I thought it was a book. It wasn't about Ireland at all and it was actually a screenplay.
I tried to write a screenplay once. Script Frenzy. Anyway...I couldn't pull it off. I can't think in the right way to make it work. Turns out I can't read it that way either. I was in school plays. I could remember lines and where I needed to be on stage, but reading this was difficult for me.
Can I review this fairly then? I don't know. Maybe not. Short version. A woman. A man. Another man. The woman and the man are both involved with the other man. Everyone knows about what's going on. The woman seems to love him. The other man seems to love him. Both are willing to take whatever the guy in the middle is willing to give them. I think he cares for them both but he's ego-centric. He does what is the best and perhaps what is easiest for him.
This movie came out in the early 70's. It was a much different world so I think given that, the sexuality was handled well. It didn't seem judgmental. It was just a slice of life for the 3 people in a little over a week, but at a pivotal time.
