After a quarrel with her husband, an unnamed woman (Jean Simmons) heads to London on the train for a shopping trip. In her compartment, en route, a much younger man (Leonard Whiting) approaches her and tries to strike up a conversation, from which she escapes. But the man remains close behind, following the woman to a department store and then to her mother's apartment. The man offers her the alluring possibility of an affair, despite their many differences.

Oct 1, 2019 Full Review John Mahoney Los Angeles Free Press This is not Alvin Rakoffs feature directorial debut, but his command of the film language and of his performances is still remarkable for its time.

Steve D A meandering waste of time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/24 Full Review Audience Member a board housewife goes to London and meets a young man looking for a good time. film not helped by the main character. a total bore. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member The contrast between the two characters having the most irreverent affair couldn't be greater, but this works well for the film that takes in plenty of what is now a time capsule of London in the early 1970's. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
