No intro. DVD review.

Three academics (Bogarde, Baker, and York) all fall for the charmless Sassard.

Incredibly dull movie that probably won awards back in the '60s. Upper-class drama that has characters spouting minimal lines with lots of subtext. Would probably appeal better to theatre audiences. Sassard (who can't act) is exactly the kind of woman that those university bores would fall for. The best part of this movie were the cricket scenes, Bogarde's wife (the best actor in the movie), that incredible house, and some strange camera work. I imagine that audiences who flocked to this movie back in the '60s all wore polo-necks, thick-framed glasses, suede jackets, and smoked.

Accident is a badly dated movie.
