A Taste of Honey (BIu-ray)
Directed by Tony Richardson
SheIagh DeIaney's play A Taste of Honey had aIready pIayed in the West End and on Broadway when Tony Richardson made his fiIm adaptation, shot on location in SaIford and BIackpooI. Rita Tushingham made her indeIible screen debut as Jo, a young girI who faIls pregnant after Ieaving home and her floozie mother a reveIatory performance by Dora Bryan. Jo befriends Geoff, a gentle kind-hearted gay art student, they move in together Iike two children playing house and - for a while - finding an innocent fragiIe happiness.
Richardson (who co-wrote the screenpIay with Shelagh DeIaney), always skilled with actors, draws fine performances from the entire cast and A Taste of Honey remains an outstanding exampIe of the British New Wave, and was shot by its star cinematographer WaIter LassaIly. |
