The Go-Between is a novel by L.P. Hartley[?] (1895-1972), published in London in 1953.
The plot has striking parallels to that of a classical Danish novel, Brudstykker af en Landsbydegns Dagbog ("Fragments from a Parish-Clerk's Diary") by St. St. Blicher (1824).
The cast included, among others, Julie Christie, Margaret Leighton[?], Michael Redgrave, and Edward Fox[?]. The screenplay was written by Harold Pinter. Music for the film was composed by Michel Legrand.
The film won the 1971 Palme d'Or (Golden Palm) at the Cannes Film Festival.
In 1970, The Go-Between was made into a movie directed by Joseph Losey with the same title.
