Plot summary

Francis Ashby, a senior Oxford don on holiday alone in the Alps, meets holidaying American Caroline and her companion Elinor, the blossoming Irish-American girl she adopted many years before. Ashby finds he enjoys their company, particularly that of Elinor, and both the women are drawn to him. Back at Oxford he is nevertheless taken aback when they arrive unannounced. Women are not allowed in the College grounds, let alone the rooms. Indeed any liaison, however innocent, is frowned on by the upstanding Fellows.

Movie Reviews

Reviewed by Steve C 10 / 10

A convincing depiction of what Victorian society might

A convincing depiction of what Victorian society might have been like. 'Goodbye, Mr. Chips' without the melodrama and posturing . The acting is subtle and believable, especially from Connie Booth. Darwinism, sexual repression, male-dominated hierarchies and the position of women are neatly skewered.

A lot of effort went into sets, costumes

A lot of effort went into sets, costumes and makeup. But to be honest the movie was a little too dull for my attention span.
Reviewed by Fi S 4 / 10

Incredibly dull acting. Yet set among stunning giants

Incredibly dull acting. Yet set among stunning giants of locations - Swiss Alps and Oxford University. Yet nothing could raise this dead cast to life. Palin acts like a carrot.
