Despite its skillfully preserved narrative ambiguities, it's not a hip show; ACCIDENT is, in some sense, the anti-BLOWUP, acutely charting the gap between the encrusted primness of Oxford and a sexual revolution whose distant echoes are so faint that they probably register as a nasty rumor at best... ACCIDENT is ultimately closer to the time-shifting traumas of Resnais.
