Love and Tragedy amid the Dreaming Spires


A powerful drama from the Pinter-Losey stable

LIKE The Servant and The Go-Between, Accident (1967) marked an evocative Director-Screenwriter collaboration of Joseph Losey and Harold Pinter. A darkly brilliant portrayal of passion and intellect colliding within the incorrigibly cloistered world of English academe, Accident merges the idyllic escapism of post-war Oxford and a haunting perversion of the Bright Young Things stereotype.
