Review of Sunday Bloody Sunday (1971) by Razvan Florentin P — 04 Jan 2012
Really bland film. decent acting, but the entire love triangle is stiflingly dull. some could argue that Finch and Jackson's characters are tragic, in that they're using the same lover to escape bigger problems in their lives, but instead end up just as lonely and desperate as they were to begin with.
I, however, see really pedestrian characters with no distinguishing or likable traits wound up in a passive and passionless "love affair". you don't pity these people, you just end up searching the film for more interesting ones.
about the only thing this movie has going for it is that it showed (in detail) a homosexual relationship in a time when such things weren't shown on conventional movie screens. but Finch/Head is just as boring as Jackson/Head, so who really cares?
