L-Shaped Room - Leslie Caron was nominated for an Oscar and won a BAFTA for this story of a jilted pregnant girl alone in her shabby Notting Hill suburban room of the title, sharing her desperation with her low-life neighbours and considering abortion in this sensitive tale of social morals at the dawning of the 60s.
