Some of My Best Friends
The film is significant for its time in that Finch's homosexual character is depicted as successful and relatively well-adjusted, and not particularly upset by his sexuality. In this sense, "Sunday Bloody Sunday" was a considerable departure from Schlesinger's previous film "Midnight Cowboy" (1969), which portrayed its gay characters as alienated and self-loathing, as well as other gay-themed films of the era, including "The Boys in the Band" (1970) and "Some of My Best Friends Are..." (1971).
