Victim

This was a good movie from Basil Dearden about a gay man who is being blackmailed and his lover who has just been killed.  He worries about the effect the news will have on his career and his family life.  At the time of this movie, homosexuality was against the law in England and more taboo than it is now.  Dick Bogarde does a good job as the blackmailed man.  SPOILERS: I like the ending when he tells his wife that he will need her.  She says needing is more important than love.  I don't know if that is necessarily true but it did make me ponder.
