The Go-Between is a 1971 British historical drama film directed by Joseph Losey, adapted by Harold Pinter from the 1953 novel by L. P. Hartley. It stars Julie Christie, Alan Bates, Margaret Leighton, Edward Fox, Dominic Guard, and Michael Redgrave. Mostly set around 1900, the film exposes the psychologically destructive effects of the rigid class conventions in Great Britain. The film premiered at the 1971 Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Palme d'Or. At the 25th British Academy Film Awards, the film won in four categories (out of 12 total nominations, including Best Film), including Best Actor in a Supporting Role for Fox and Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Leighton. It also brought Leighton the only Oscar nomination of her career, for Best Supporting Actress. In 1999, The Go-Between was included on the British Film Institute's list of its 100 best British films.

Each of you opens The Go-Between on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
