    I liked this movie, but I think it would appeal more to it's targrt audience, namely the English. As an American I'm sure I missed nuances of the battle here between the master and his servent.

    Hypnotizing, elegant, ambiguous suspense. Dirk Bogarde is beyond words, what an incredible performance. A bit slow, but impossible to look away from. Is it a social critique? Probably, but I'm still trying to figure it all out. Excellent.
