A Touch Of Class - 1973 ****


What a nice contrast to the film before.This was funny, up-tempo and intelligent. A happily married man (Segal) meets divorcee (Jackson) and the 2 embark on a risque week away in Spain. The whole situation is (to put it bluntly) supposed to revolve around sex, but things get tricky when Segal realises he has fallen in love with Jackson. I know it's not that original of a plot, but it's very witty and actually there were a few moments where I laughed out loud (one involving Segal spraining his back). I also loved seeing London as it was in the 70s with normal people going about their business; snapshots like that always draw me to films like this.
