Middle-aged Gerald Kingsland advertises in a London paper for a female companion to spend a year with him on a desert island. The young Lucy Irving takes a chance on contacting him and after a couple of meetings they decide to go ahead. Once on the island things prove a lot less idyllic than in the movies, and gradually it becomes clear that it is Lucy who has the desire and the strength to try and see the year through. (imdb)

Oliver Reed is a force of nature as usual, but that's not the aspect of this film that made me watch it every time it came on late-night TV when I was a teen. That was down to Donohoe being naked or almost-naked for 3/4 of the runtime. Watching again, it still gets some plus points for that but there's also a solid character drama behind it. That, and the gorgeous location, make it a decent film.

Odd how it's like entirely about sex once they get to the island. Interestingly so, at times, but it gets boring, and the later developments are given short shrift.

A man decides to see if he can survive for a whole year and a beautiful stranger decides to join him. She is astoundingly beautiful and topless almost the whole film and it is not often that a film with so much nudity that has so much heart to it. I was impressed in multiple ways.

Really strange film. Reed looks drunk and Donohoe looks naked.
