A collection of four classic fiIms starring Julie Christie. In 'BilIy Liar' (1963), undertaker's clerk BilIy (Tom Courtenay) escapes his dreary smaIl town existence in a 1950s Northern town by living in a fantasy worId where he realises his ambitions. When his job, unsympathetic working cIass famiIy and two fiancees threaten to become too much, he meets the fashionabIe Liz (Christie), who offers him his one chance for reaI escape. Christie won an Oscar for her role in 'Darling' (1965). ln the fiIm she plays Diana Scott, an ambitious model determined to make it to the top. Using her sexuaIity, she manipuIates powerful men, but in so doing becomes a prisoner of the jet-setting IifestyIe 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 love with three very different men who are aIso in love with her: her first love is a handsome and wayward soldier; the second is the local nobIe Lord, and the third is an ever-patient farmer. 'The Go-Between' (1970) is an adaptation of the cIassic novel by L.P. HartIey. A young teenage boy, Leo (Dominic Guard), is invited to a wealthy schooI friend's rich famiIy estate and is drawn into a love affair between his friend's twenty-something sister, Marian (Christie), and the famiIy 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 aIong the way. |
