Intimate Relations

A most unusual love triangle takes shape in this diabolically dark comedy based on a shocking true crime. In a small town in 1950s England, sailor Harold Guppy (Rupert Graves) takes a room in the boardinghouse run by the prim-and-proper Mrs. Beasley (Julie Walters). But beneath the oh-so-respectable trimmings lurks a sordid reality as the hapless Harold finds himself ensnared between the amorous advances of both his landlady and her teenage daughter (Laura Sadler)—a precarious situation that gradually takes a treacherous turn.
