A kitchen sink drama version of Lolita. Following the suicide of her mother Luci is taken in by her mothers old school friend, who is now a well to do doctor. But all is not what it seems in the nice middle class household and Luci, obviously suffering trauma from her mother's death, soon sets about unwittingly destroying the fragile domestic bliss. Preying on the various sexual mores of each of the family, the son's voyeurism and sexual insecurity, the mother's lesbian tendencies, and the father's subsequent sexual frustration and jealousy.Whilst the melodrama plays out quiet slowly, the film does give some fascinating glimpses into the swinging London of the period. A promising film that doesn't quite fulfil it's potential, but worth a look if you come across it.
