Love cloning An early, black and white film from the famous British studio Hammer from the best director of Hammer Terence Fisher.
Bill (Stephen Murray), Robin (John Van Eyssen) and the beautiful Lena (Barbara Payton) live in a small town where nothing ever happens. They've been friends since early childhood. Depicting the Knights of the Round Table, the boys fought more than once for the favor of their queen. The children's games were watched with a smile by the wise Dr. Harvey (James Hater). As the boys began to grow up, the doc became Bill’s guardian and mentor and the first to notice a spark of genius in him, which at times even frightened the doctor.
It's been years. The boys grew up, graduated from Cambridge and returned to their hometown. She returned to him, having lost faith in the sweet life, and Lina. Combining their knowledge and aspirations, the three create a machine that today would be called a 3D printer. The device can accurately copy any thing. At the same time, young people are only interested in science: there is no question of copying, for example, the atomic bomb and world domination. But, it is clear that there comes a situation when one of the friends marries Lin, and the other decides to create an exact copy of her.
The film turned out very raw. The role was played by the not too successful selection of actors, of whom only the character of Dr. Harvey is remembered, and he is a secondary character in this four-sided triangle.
And most importantly, the story itself could be the start of a really cool movie. And Terence Fisher made such a film in 1966 - Frankenstein created a woman with the magnificent Peter Cushing and the sexy Susan Denberg.
“Four-sided triangle” is the case when the film is simply outdated.
