Vain and insecure Oxford don Stephen’s life is thrown into turmoil when he falls in love with one of his students, Anna. But she has also attracted the attention of William, a wealthy student, and Charley, a colleague of whose professional success and self-confidence Stephen is profoundly envious.

From dissident auteur Joseph Losey comes this Harold Pinter-penned drama about the doomed romantic whims of an Oxford professor. Realized in an elliptical flurry of carefully woven images, and starring Losey’s muse, Dirk Bogarde, Accident is a quintessential 1960s view of the quandaries of love.
