Dirk Bogarde cuts his birthday cake, watched by co-star Olivia de Havilland, on the set of ‘Libel’, 1959.

“Bogarde himself wrote the scene in which Farr admits to his wife that he is gay and has continued to be attracted to other men despite his earlier assurances to the contrary. He wrote years later in his autobiography that his father had suggested he do The Mayor of Casterbridge, “But I did Victim instead, […] playing the barrister with the loving wife, a loyal housekeeper, devoted secretary and the Secret Passion. It was the wisest decision I ever made in my cinematic life. It is extraordinary, in this over-permissive age [c. 1988], to believe that this modest film could ever have been considered courageous, daring or dangerous to make. It was, in its time, all three.’”

Thinking what? That one person could reach out to another? Take an interest in another? That maybe for one, fleeting instant could manage to see beyond the surface? Beyond the colour of things?
