Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Stagy adaptation by Pinter of his own theatrical success about a determinedly upper-middle class romantic triangle between Kingsley's publisher, wife Hodge, and glacial lover Irons. Hodge is fine, Kingsley tries his best, and Irons is as tight-assed as ever. But it's all so uncinematic as to make one wonder why it was ever made in the first place.
