What happens
Laughter in the Dark (French: La Chambre obscure) is a 1969 romantic drama film directed by Tony Richardson and starring Nicol Williamson, Anna Karina and Jean-Claude Drouot. The screenplay was by Edward Bond. It was based on the 1936 novel Laughter in the Dark by Vladimir Nabokov, with the setting changed from 1930s Berlin to 1960s Swinging London. The film drew respectable reviews, but for reasons that are unclear, it was subsequently removed from distribution. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
