Description

Ken Russell directs this adaptation of D.H. Lawrence's novel starring Alan Bates, Oliver Reed and Glenda Jackson. Set in the Midlands mining town of Beldover in the 1920s, the film follows the relationships between sisters Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen (Jennie Linden and Jackson) and their husbands Gerald Crich (Reed) and Rupert Birkin (Bates).

Following their courtship, the quartet spend time together discussing the meaning of life and love but when they go on holiday together to the Alps the complex and fiery relationship between Gerald and Gudrun begins to boil over which has devastating implications for all involved.
