Separate Tables (1983)(dvd)
Synopsis: Julie Christie
teamed with director John Schlesinger for the fourth and last time (to date) on
this TV-movie version of the celebrated Terence Rattigan play that was first
filmed by Delbert Mann in 1958. She's far too beautiful for the role of the
mousey Sybil, but her hesitant performance just about stands comparison with
Deborah Kerr's.
Alan Bates, her co-star in Far from the Madding Crowd,
is a touch too ebullient in the role that earned David Niven an Oscar, but it's
clear the couple enjoy working together.
Cast: Julie Christie,
Alan Bates Runtime: 113 min
