The plot has striking parallels to that of a classical Danish novel, Brudstykker af en Landsbydegns Dagbog ("Fragments from a Parish-Clerk's Diary") by St. St. Blicher (1824).
The cast included, among others, Julie Christie, Margaret Leighton[?], Michael Redgrave, and Edward Fox[?]. The screenplay was written by Harold Pinter. Music for the film was composed by Michel Legrand.
The film won the 1971 Palme d'Or (Golden Palm) at the Cannes Film Festival.
