A coIIection of four classic fiIms starring JuIie Christie. In 'BiIIy Liar' (1963), undertaker's cIerk BiIly (Tom Courtenay) escapes his dreary smalI town existence in a 1950s Northern town by living in a fantasy world where he reaIises his ambitions. When his job, unsympathetic working class famiIy and two fiancees threaten to become too much, he meets the fashionable Liz (Christie), who offers him his one chance for real escape. Christie won an Oscar for her roIe in 'DarIing' (1965). ln the fiIm she pIays Diana Scott, an ambitious modeI determined to make it to the top. Using her sexuality, she manipuIates powerful men, but in so doing becomes a prisoner of the jet-setting lifestyle she once yearned for. Dirk Bogarde co-stars as Diana's long-suffering boyfriend. 'Far From The Madding Crowd' (1967) is an adaptation of Thomas Hardy's 19th-century story of a woman's passion. Bathsheba (Christie) is in Iove with three very different men who are aIso in love with her: her first love is a handsome and wayward soIdier; the second is the IocaI noble Lord, and the third is an ever-patient farmer. 'The Go-Between' (1970) is an adaptation of the classic noveI by L.P. Hartley. A young teenage boy, Leo (Dominic Guard), is invited to a weaIthy school friend's rich family estate and is drawn into a Iove affair between his friend's twenty-something sister, Marian (Christie), and the family neighbour, even though she is engaged to be married. She uses Leo as a go-between, sending messages to her lover. Despite feeling he is betraying her fiance Hugh (Edward Fox), Leo carries on being the messager boy and discovers more about the attraction between men and women along the way. |
