#4: Sunday Blo*dy Sunday (1971)
John Schlesinger’s Sunday Blo*dy Sunday presented a mature take on a complex situation: a love triangle between a male doctor, a female professional, and the younger bi man they are both involved with. Peter Finch and Glenda Jackson played the older partners navigating this shared relationship. The real innovation of Sunday Blo*dy Sunday was its matter-of-fact tone. It treated a queer relationship not as a source of tragedy or a punchline, but as a normal part of adult emotional life.
