Description:
Shooting script for the 1971 film, seen here under the working title "Bloody Sunday."
A recently divorced woman in her mid-30s and a successful Jewish doctor are both romantically involved with a charming young sculptor named Bob. Both parties are aware Bob is seeing the other-and indeed, have a shared social circle-but have decided to live with the love triangle rather than risk losing him.
A frank and groundbreaking examination of romance, sexuality, and relationships. Notably, the first mainstream film with a gay character (and a bisexual character) that is guiltless and successful, not condescending, and non-stereotypical.
Set in and shot on location in London.
