Three's a Crowd / The Chaser

Three's A Crowd, didn't just dabble in pathos, it plunged its hapless hero into a netherworld of loneliness worthy of Samuel Beckett (a self-avowed Langdon fan). Harry stars as a slum-dweller who invites a freezing woman (Gladys McConnell), pregnant withanother man's child, into his home. Nursing mother and child back to health, he achieves his dream of having a family...or so he hopes. Langdon's second film as director, The Chaser is a dark, slightly kinky comedy in which carousing Harry is ordered bya judge to swap domestic duties (and clothing) with his wife. Deprived of his manliness, Harry contemplates suicide while coping with flirtatious salesmen and the scorn of a former comrade.
