The screenplay for Accident, an English film, was written by playwright Harold Pinter and therein seems to lie the problem. His characters have no outward life conversationally.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
Of Losey's three collaborations with Pinter (the other two are 1963's The Servant and 1970's The Go-Between), it is the most challenging and influential.

Observer (UK)
Dirk Bogarde's crumbling don is the sharpest of the many similar performances he has given, and Stanley Baker is superbly chunky as Bogarde's rival for a young Austrian student (Jacqueline Sassard).
