Adapted from a play, this ones about an alcoholic English prof who unwittingly becomes a victim of unrequited love, as a working-class hairdresser lady turns up in his room to learn English. As Julie Winters character aspires to transform her life with the education, the cynical alcoholic is increasingly attracted to the spontaniety of her working-class background. Michael Caine as always delivers a strong performance, while Julie Winters makes the transformation very real.
