The Go-Between (1970) by Joseph Losey

What for young Leo begins (Dominic Guard) as some adventurous summer months at the stately residence of his sophisticated classmate Marcus (Richard Gibson) collapses eventually into a complete disaster for everybody. Hypnotised by the charme and magic of Marcus’ sister Marian (Julie Christie), Leo devotionally offers himself, his heart and his feet to let her taste the forbidden fruit, called Ted Burgess (Alan Bates). Far too soon black and heavy clouds darken the sky of the secret triangle to never enlighten again.
