Set in postwar Yorkshire, the film skillfully blends kitchen-sink realism with heartfelt melodrama to tell the story of a young man from the working class who courts the boss's daughter while also becoming the lover of an unhappily married older woman. The &ldquo;X&rdquo; rating the film received from the British censors seems to stem as much from the work's emotional rawness as from its frank sexual content.=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:7pm
