# The Raging Moon (1971)

1971 · 112 min · Drama · United Kingdom


## Synopsis

The Raging Moon is a 1971 British romantic drama film starring Malcolm McDowell and Nanette Newman and based on the book by British novelist Peter Marshall. Adapted and directed by Bryan Forbes, this "romance in wheelchairs" was considered unusual in its time owing in part to the sexual nature of the relationship between McDowell and Newman, who play disabled people. The film received two Golden Globe nominations, for Best Foreign Film, and Best Song for "Long Ago Tomorrow".
