Summary: In 'Darling' a professional model marries an Italian nobleman. Her lust for wealth and success eventually destroy her. In 'L-Shaped Room' a woman faces life in a shabby, suburban bed-sit after being jilted and left pregnant. Sharing her desperation with an assortment of neighbours, they help her to decide whether to have an abortion...
Two fine examples of 1960s British cinema on one DVD.
DARLING: Julie Christie stars as the immensely charming Darling, a role that would garner her an Oscar as Best Actress. Although she's married, she falls hard for television interviewer Robert (Dirk Bogarde), and their friendship blossoms into a full-blown affair that has each of them leaving their spouses in order to move in together. But Darling is far from done. Next she meets smooth Miles (Laurence Harvey), who knows all the right people in the film industry. But Miles is merely another stepping stone as Darling climbs in and out of bed on her way to the top, which is not quite what she expected. John Schlesinger's black-and-white film features a terrific cast and a wonderful score by John Dankworth. It captures 1960s London like few other movies, making a nice companion piece to BLOWUP. DARLING was written by Frederic Raphael, who would later go on to write EYES WIDE SHUT for Stanley Kubrick.
THE L-SHAPED ROOM: Newly arrived in London, a young, pregnant French girl (Leslie Caron) takes a room in a cheap boarding house. Befriending the curious assortment of housemates, she soon finds out that they all assume she has fled France to have an abortion. This makes her even more determined to have the child, but things become complicated when she becomes romantically involved with housemate Toby, a failed writer.
