An unusual little feature which teams Glenda Jackson and Oliver Reed with, making his debut, Brian Deacon.
Deacon plays an AWOL soldier who goes to Jackson for help and ends up posing as her visiting sister, a role he grows to identify with. Reed plays a sneery officer who becomes interested in the the 'sister'. Cue a rather convoluted plot which inevitably ends in tragedy.
Jackson is the best thing in this - a tired, lonely farmer looking for companionship and making tough decisions. But the film is - although fascinating - ultimately unsatisfying and seems to step back from the scenario it took such care to create just as it gets interesting.
