"The Romantic Englishwoman" is a 1975 British film directed by Joseph Losey. The story revolves around Lewis Fielding, a successful novelist who is struggling with writer's block while working on his latest novel. In his frustration, he turns his attention to writing a film script instead.
Fielding's wife, Elizabeth, returns from a trip to Baden Baden, but she hasn't found herself as she had hoped. However, she did have a chance encounter in a lift with a mysterious German man who claims to be a poet. This German man, named Thomas Kroh, follows Elizabeth back to England and manages to secure an invitation to tea at the Fielding's residence.
At the tea, Thomas reveals that he admires Fielding's books, particularly "Tom Jones," which amuses Fielding because he is often mistaken for the other famous writer with the same last name. Intrigued by this encounter and the potential for a new story, Fielding decides to incorporate Thomas into his script.
As the plot unfolds, Thomas becomes a prominent character in Fielding's screenplay. He is portrayed as a seductive and enigmatic figure who becomes involved in a complex love triangle with Lewis and Elizabeth. The line between reality and fiction becomes blurred as the boundaries of the script bleed into the lives of the characters themselves.
Throughout the movie, conflicts arise as jealousy, desire, and identity issues come to the forefront. The characters grapple with their own self-discovery, exploring themes of sexual liberation, creative expression, and the quest for happiness. As the story progresses, the audience is taken on a journey that blurs the lines between the real world and the fictional realm created by Fielding's imagination.
"The Romantic Englishwoman" delves into the complexities of relationships, the creative process, and the interplay between reality and fantasy. It explores the themes of identity, self-expression, and the search for meaning in a clever and entertaining way, all within the context of Lewis Fielding's attempt to overcome his writer's block.
