When a young soldier (Brian Deacon) deserts his outfit and hides in a remote farm, the farm owner (Glenda Jackson) and he fall in love. But their idyll is shattered by the arrival of a boorish, violent army sergeant (Oliver Reed) searching for his AWOL recruit. Unconventional and superbly played, The Triple Echo is one of the finest British films of the 1970s. (Powerhouse Films)
