About this product
Product Information
Meek mathematician David Sumner (Dustin Hoffman), working in supposed seclusion, has taken up residence in the small Cornwall town where his young wife Amy (Susan George) was raised. He immediately becomes the butt of jokes for the local toughs, who see him as a milquetoast and Amy as fair game to prove their macho superiority.Immature and frustrated, Amy encourages the attentions of the louts who have come to work on their roof, precipitating a series of harrowing events - of which a brutal rape is only the beginning.Amidst it all, David discovers his own sense of primitive outrage, and his own acumen for violence.Product Identifiers

It was far too violent.
The stress of the conflict steadily grew until the very violent end. The actors played their parts well to fit the story line.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
