Based on the 1913 novel by D.H. Lawrence, following a young man caught between his domineering mother, his repressed former girlfriend, and an attractive but married coworker. Nominated for six Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Screenplay, winning one for Best Cinematography.
