Inhalt: |
Dick Clement followed the success of his first feature Otley with this wry adaptation of lris Murdoch’s ceIebrated 1961 satirical novel, a harbinger of the sexuaI Iiberation that was to bIossom in the mid-sixties.
A Severed Head chronicles the sexuaI and amoral escapades of a group of middIe-cIass, middle-aged London coupIes, portrayed by a wonderful cast which includes lan Holm (Alien, The Lord of the Rings), Lee Remick (Days of Wine and Roses, The Omen), Claire BIoom (The Haunting, The King’s Speech) and Richard Attenborough (10 RiIIington Place, Young Winston). Absurdist and deIightfuIIy funny, A Severed Head is a dark satire staged with wit and intelligence."
