THE BIRTHDAY PARTY (1968)

WILLIAM FRIEDKIN

Plot

Pinter's first full-length play, brought to the screen ten years after its frostily received one week West End run. A loner living in a run-down seaside boarding house is terrorised by two sinister visitors whose seemingly inane chat starts to take a terrifyingly intimidating turn.
