A Touch of Love (1969)
Excellent Moody Melodrama Captures the Period

I wish this were on DVD. I know it is an esoteric film but it is a little gem starring Sandy Dennis when she was at her peak popularity.
Despite the commentary on the miserable part of living in England, London is beautifully photographed and is almost its own character in the film.
Also a great history lesson for young women on how oppressive sexual mores(more-ays) once were before Blondie, Britney and Madonna.
Young Ian McKellen is in this for all fans of the awful Lord of the Rings Trilogy. For those who want a juxtaposition of what films once were, just watch these two McKellen films that bookend his career.
This is a great film to watch on a rainy afternoon.
