Cast

Production

It was filmed on location in Dublin, County Westmeath, Galway and at Ardmore Studios.

Release

The film went to VHS and Laserdisc, but has not yet appeared on DVD.

New York Times reviewer Vincent Canby described the film as "an ambitious mess, of interest only because of the chance to see [Julie] Christie, who becomes more and more tautly beautiful with the years, and [Mary Elizabeth] Mastrantonio, who is also beautiful and does an extremely credible upper-class English accent."[2] The Washington Post described it as "a passionate, mystifyingly awkward bit of filmmaking".[2]
