Women in Love is a 1920 novel by English author D. H. Lawrence.It is a sequel to his novel The Rainbow (1915), and follows the continuing loves and lives of the sisters Gudrun and Ursula Brangwen. Gudrun Brangwen, an artist, pursues a destructive relationship with Gerald Crich, an industrialist. Lawrence contrasts this pair with the love that develops between Ursula and Rupert Birkin, an alienated intellectual who articulates many opinions that are associated with the author. The emotional relationships thus established are given further depth and tension by an intense psychological and physical attraction between Gerald and Rupert. The novel ranges over the whole of British society before the time of the First World War and eventually ends high up in the snows of the Tyrolean Alps.Adapted into a 1969 film directed by Ken Russell from a screenplay by Larry Kramer (The Normal Heart), starring Alan Bates as Rupert, Oliver Reed as Gerald, Glenda Jackson as Gudrun, and Jennie Linden as Ursula. The film received four Academy Award nominations, with Jackson winning for Best Actress. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
| Women in Love / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The section with Gerald forcing his horse to endure a train riding past is written in a way that makes it sound like a rape scene, and it's very unsettling. In the film adaptation, the scene with Rupert and Gerald wrestling in the nude is just this side of being a straight-up sex scene. It even ends with the two characters lying on the floor, panting, one asking the other "Was it good for you?" | |

| Women in Love / int_5941d75 | comment |
Beta Couple: The couples are foils for each other, with Rupert and Ursula ultimately learning to give themselves to each other, and Gerald and Gudrun having a harder time at it. In addition, each couple's central conflict approximates a gender-flipped version of the other's, with Rupert and Gudrun being the Rebellious Spirits. | |
