All great films. I would probably choose ‘Far From The Madding Crowd’, but it’s hard to pick a favourite.
Best wishes, Pete.
The more I think about it, I think An Englishman Abroad and A Question of Attribution now top Schlesinger’s others as his greatest films. Anyway, thanks for dropping by 🙂
John, We are at complete opposite ends of the field with this list 🙂 I would go with Midnight Cowboy and The Day of the Locust as my top films.
As I said to Pete above, the more I think about it, the more I am starting to honestly feel that Schlesinger’s two TV films An Englishman Abroad and A Question of Attribution may just be his greatest films. Anyway, thanks for dropping by 🙂
