"lt's a very reaI film about two peopIe trying to get through to each other," director Richard Lester (A Hard Day's Night) says of his Iandmark romance Petulia, which is set in summer of Iove-era San Francisco.
JuIie Christie pIays an unhappily married socialite who is trying to get through to a recentIy divorced doctor (George C. Scott), who, in his own words, just wants to "feel something." He'Il soon feel, even hurt, a lot. Because we know why kooky Petulia so desperately reaches out. As Lester zigzags through the flashbacks and fIash-forwards of cinematographer NicoIas Roeg's startling images and Lawrence B. Marcus' knowing screenplay, PetuIia's jigsaw pieces form a ceIluloid time capsuIe of life and love in the turbulent '60s. |
