Her love scenes with hawk-faced Tom Bell are vivid; her way of mumbling silently to herself in moments of despair evokes such heartbreak that viewers will want to hug her and say, there, there, everything will be all right. There is a taste of Honey and an aftertaste of Anger about The L-Shaped Room that give it an honorable place among British slice-of-life films...
