deserted by her trollopy mother. She becomes pregnant by a Negro sailor and is tended in her unwed motherhood-to-be by a gentle homosexual. The difference between Miss
Delaney's approach, and that of many of the modern writers, is that this writer isn't mad at anyone. Very young when she wrote the play, she has the tolerance and humanity of experience. Her people are sad, funny and grotesque, but none of them is hateful. It is a charming and touching story and film, and contains the only true portrait of homosexualism in the entire literature of modern books, plays and movies. The only drawback to appreciation for an American audience is that the speech is often unintelligible. It is authentic British provincial speech, but for international audiences might have been doctored a bit. Richardson's cast, whom he has guided superbly, is largely unknown. Rita Tushingham, who plays the central figure, is expressive of every shading in a girl pushed into womanhood. Dora Bryan, as the mother, is weightless as cotton candy, and as falsely alluring. Paul Danquah is strong as the seaman, Murray Melvin unerring in a delicate role.
549:, Rita Tushingham's Jo lacks technical accomplishment, but makes up for it with a spirited North Country protest and grave, haunting eyes which express exactly that bleak independence, the sudden snatching after ephemeral happiness in the midst of drab hopelessness, which is at the core of the play. Tony Richardson's direction, though geared throughout to the right mood, has not quite the rhythm and poetry to carry it through. His Blackpool fairground sequences are obviously handled along lines familiar from his previous films; and there is still too much putting-on of style (crowds of singing or playing children) as opposed to the natural lyricism of the sailor's leavetaking in silhouetted long-shot on the bridge. Certain passages are unnecessarily abrupt, while others – possibly due to a number of self-conscious dissolves – seem either dragged-out on the one hand or inconsequential and irrelevant on the other.
541:, and the script, though it misses a little of the verbal richness and precision of the original (as in Jo's persistent request for details of Geoffrey's amatory activities, here muffed), achieves a warm feeling for relationships. Murray Melvin's wistful homosexual, with his pinched, troubled face and nervous kindness, and Dora Bryan's restless, casually effusive Helen, her broad shapeless features occasionally clouded by bitter self-awareness, could hardly be bettered. Something of a cross between

down Helen. Helen comes to visit Jo, and they almost immediately have a row. An inebriated Peter, who Helen had told to wait outside, enters and takes back some money Helen offered Jo; he also claims he will not allow Jo to move into his house, though Jo had already rejected this idea. Before she leaves, Helen offers to come stay with Jo, but Jo again refuses the help. Once alone, Peter gives Helen the same ultimatum as in
Blackpool, and she again chooses him over Jo.

a black sailor, who makes her pregnant, and a homosexual who makes her happy until the poverty trap snaps shut around her. Set in dank bedsits amid the grimy smokestacks, polluted canals and the tacky prom at
Blackpool, this movie – a romance of sorts, and a comedy – survives as a priceless barometer of England in 1961.

A ground-breaking movie of its time, this features the mousy Rita

Delaney's story, based on her successful play, is not one for general release, probably, although its people and their circumstances are no gamier – and in some ways are a good deal healthier – than in some of our "realistic" films. It is the story of a young woman, little more than a girl,
