    the movie is about a man who dates a younger girl who he breaks up with in his car she leaves he then feels sorry for her and as he steps out of his car (which has suicide doors) to call her back he is hit by a bus and becomes disabled and she looks after him being very visous about it.

    thankyou

    It sounds a bit like Bitter Moon but that wasn`t from the 60`s.

    The circumstances of the breakup and accident are fairly different in Bitter Moon but what happens after sounds just the same. You can tell Bitter Moon isn't 60s by the excellent use of George Michael on the soundtrack. Marvellous.

    Yes sounds like Bitter Moon although I thought he ( played by Peter Coyote) was hit by a car. She was French. The film was largely in flashbacks with him in a wheelchair relating his story on a ship to the guy ( played by Hugh Grant in one of his better roles) who was one half of a couple ( the other was Kristin Scott Thomas) they had befriended. A great film made circa 1992 but with a bit of a 60s feel to the early part of the film.



    In the 1977 film "the man who loved women" the lead character was knocked down by a car as he crossed the road to eye up a woman who had taken his fancy. But it sounds far more like Bitter Moon.

    saw a movie a long time ago but can not remember its name.

    from the little i can remember it is a british movie set in the 60s or 70s

    it has a simular story to bitter moon.

    its the story of a man and a woman in a relationship she is much younger than him one day he breaks up with her in the street in his car, she is upset and leaves the car he feels guilty and gets out of the car to call her back and is hit by a double decker bus the remainder of the movie has her looking after him as he can no longer walk and she goes about it in a vicious way.

    it is not bitter moon

    thankyou

    saw a movie a long time ago about a man who is getting out of his car is hit by a bus just after breaking up with girlfriend. he ends up in wheelchair with ex girlfriend looking after him. she does mean things to him to take revenge on him like jabbing medication needles into leg in the same spot each time, brings home black guy and has sex while guy in wheelchair can hear them. i am sure it was a brit film and is not bitter moon.
