Two Gentlemen Sharing (1969)

豆知識

Two Gentlemen Sharing is a 1969 American-British drama film directed by Ted Kotcheff, starring Robin Phillips, Judy Geeson, Esther Anderson, Hal Frederick, Norman Rossington and Rachel Kempson. It was written by Evan Jones based on the 1963 novel of the same name by David Stuart Leslie.

Production

The film was one of two movies jointly financed between Paramount and the National Film Finance Corporation, the other being Negatives.

Filming took place from May to June 1968. Garfield Sobers doubled for Hal Frederick in a cricket scene.

According to film critic and historian Alexander Walker, "Differences of opinion began almost as soon as it [the film] was finished, with Paramount insisting that the makers had not delivered the film ‘as scripted,’ and the latter asserting that it was essentially the same, allowing for the ‘inevitable’ changes in shooting due to second and presumably better thoughts, or the reshaping of scenes that did not work."

Jones commented, "I suppose they wanted another Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, a film where white and black go off together into the sunset."

Paramount put the film up for sale. In August 1969 it was announced the film would be distributed in the US by AIP and in Britain by Nat Cohen's Anglo-Amalgamated.
