A great british film, good drama and story. Filmed at a time when I grew up in London and started my first job a long time ago I am 84 now. Thank you for posting.
Think what you want but I watch only British films of 60s, 70s and 80s. For me they are the best. Always captivating plot, excellent acting. There is always a lot to learn. If only Britain of today was like in films
You are not the only one who prefer movies from that period. I can assure you that many people from different countries would tell the same. That was a blooming time for the world cinematography.
I did appreciate the shot at 1:15:00, the symbolism of the sterile modern fireplace with nothing in it. This is an astonishing film, one the most absorbing movies I have ever seen. My only small criticism is that there were scenes chopped out of this version, such as when Mrs Farr tries to convince herself that her husband's interest in Barratt was that of a kind man sympathising with a "nice boy" who idolised him.
Fantastic movie… London looked so good in the 60’s… Unfortunately was a very sad time because the law prosecuted homosexuals… Now that we finally have got out of those days we face other problems which are really destroying the country and London! Thank you for posting! ❤🇮🇹🇬🇧✨
Have you any understanding as to "Why" the British film, and even TV writing was so superior to the American? Even the acting, like Maggie Smith and most of the sitcoms, ( Yes, Minister . To the Manner Born, Keeping up appearances etc.) ❓❤🤔
Very brave of any male actor to star in this movie . Terrible law . Thing s have changed but homophobia still exists, Some times homophobia is inverted . Chemical castration n sectioned . So wrong
Who is supposed to be the victim? Dirk was dark. He deliberately chose to portray predatory paedophiles in his choice of films. "Victim , The Spanish gardener Death in Venice, "and other creepy adaptations of men " in love " with boys. The real victims are children. These types of films are disgusting.
Dokładnie. Zresztą teraz Te wszystkie Holywood"y itp robią filmy tylko na takie tematy. Królowa Anglii może być czarnoskóra, geje , liesbijki oraz transy.. to obowiązkowa tematyka, Kino zeszło na psych , jak cały "zgniły: zachód..
There is a world of difference between the movies of Dirk Bogarde and the rubbish put out today by Hollywood. If you can't see that you can't understand anything.
@@garryferrington811Unfortunately the US doesn't like or make serious films. Consequently anything that doesn't look like a modern version of John Wayne and the Wild West is beyond their comprehension. A pity there's no European equivalent of RUclips.

Totally agree😊

Films like this just MAKE an evening a night to remember
This movie was shot in just _ten days!_
Classic story beautifully enacted. Great film.
Excellent film, very brave for its time.
Thats my guy in charge. From Hobson Choice and my favorite series. Sgt. Cork❤Both Canadian.
Dirk Bogarde was almost type cast in this role, Given his 'other life' which always kept very secret to protect his persona as a 'Matinee Idol'.
I always wondered
What a beautiful movie. Way ahead of it's time.
It really is.👍

Excellent thank!!
Thankyou 🎉
A closeted man playing a closeted man...was a pretty brave choice for Mr. Bogarde given that it wouldn't be decriminalized in the UK until 1967.
Enjoyed Thank you
Who knew? Captain Peacock used to do hair!
😂
Grace Brothers was definitely a step up for him ☺
Very well done movie given the subject.
Ten film nawet ,nawet. Ale teraz w Holywood tylko takie robią , czarna królowa , geje i liesbijki oraz transy! Najważniejszy temat! kino BEZNADZIEJNE!

Unsavoury subject... especially blackmail
Not much has changed with the current British government..
After fourteen years of tories, it's all Labour's fault.
A pity Dirk Bogarde never had the courage or decency to acknowledge his long-term relationship with the man he shared his life with.
Very brave of any male actor to star in this movie . Terrible law . Thing s have changed but homophobia still exists,
Some times homophobia is inverted .
Chemical castration n sectioned .
So wrong
Didn’t know this was a musical..in the limp wristed Palm Springs way😺

@@fredneecher1746 I take it you are a fan of those types of films?
"Death in Venice" was a pretty good movie.
