The Go-Between is Harold Pinter's 1970 film adaptation of the novel by L. P. Hartley. A British production directed by Joseph Losey, it stars Dominic Guard (in the title role of Leo Colston), Julie Christie, Alan Bates, Margaret Leighton, Michael Redgrave, Michael Gough and Edward Fox. The story follows a young man named Leo, who comes to in a beautiful English house at the time of the 1900s. While he stays there, he finds himself a 'go-between' caught up between the daughter of his host and a poor neighbor she loves. Dominic Guard plays the young Leo and Michael Redgrave plays the same character in old age.
Pinter's screenplay—his final collaboration with Losey, following The Servant (1963) and Accident (1967)—is largely faithful to the novel, though it alludes to the novel's opening events in dialogue and incorporates events described in the novel's epilogue within the central narrative.
The film was shot at Melton Constable, Heydon and Norwich in Norfolk.
Michel Legrand composed the soundtrack for the film. The main theme is now used as the title music for the french "true crime" documentary series "Faites Entrer L'Accusé".
The film won the Grand Prix at the 1971 Cannes Film LESS
