Darling
Julie Christie stars as the immensely charming Darling, a role that would garner her an Oscar as Best Actress. Although she's married, she falls hard for television interviewer Robert (Dirk Bogarde), and their friendship blossoms into a full-blown affair that has each of them leaving their spouses in order to move in together. But Darling is far from done. Next she meets smooth Miles (Laurence Harvey), who knows all the right people in the film industry. But Miles is merely another stepping stone as Darling climbs in and out of bed on her way to the top, which is not quite what she expected. John Schlesinger's black-and-white film features a terrific cast and a wonderful score by John Dankworth. It captures 1960s London like few other movies, making a nice companion piece to BLOWUP. DARLING was written by Frederic Raphael, who would later go on to write EYES WIDE SHUT for Stanley Kubrick.

A Dated Darling
It's hard to believe that Julie Christie won an Oscar for her role as an ambitious, amoral model in this film as it strikes me that her performance is one ... read more »

Away From Her
- 08 Feb 2008
After 40 years of marriage, Fiona (Julie Christie) decides it is time to move on. This is no reflection on her husband, Grant (Gordon Pinsent), but an acknowledgment that her mind is already drifting out the door. As the Alzheimer's worsens she will require round-the-clock attention. Grant agrees in principle, but he's distraught when the nursing home bars him for the first 30 days, and then bereft to find that his wife has transferred her affections to another patient, Aubrey (Michael Murphy).
