Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaGlenda Jackson's Best Actress Academy Award win for this movie was so shocking to viewers of the ceremony that a recount was considered for the votes. The Oscar was rumored to be going to Marsha Mason for 'Cinderella Liberty' (1973) or Ellen Burstyn for 'The Exorcist' (1973) as they were the front runners.
- GoofsEarly on in the film, when Vicki and Steve first share the taxi, it is reflected in the windscreen of the taxi just as it pulls up to drop Vicki off in the rain.

Featured review
Bittersweet
Bittersweet comedy helped immeasurably by the chemistry of the stars and the skill of their performances. Glenda is brash and delicate in equal measure, George bombastic but good natured. While it shows the pitfalls of infidelity it doesn't judge its characters for their choices and actually presents all the relationships, including Glenda's gay assistant's, evenhandedly rather surprising for the 70's. As far as her receiving an Oscar for this performance, she's sprightly and more relaxed than she usually was on screen but I doubt that even she expected to grab the prize for what is a customary solid job but hardly extraordinary.
