Way beyond the norm for a TV movie, "The Laughter of God" takes us into the darkened marriage of a couple (brilliantly played by Peter Firth & Amanda Donohoe) who loathe each other. Each are having an affair and the various characters in the story are connected remotely in a good, thrilling plot with a few good twists. A clever story with a good director, Tony Bicat and an early leading role for the superb Peter Firth, this must come out on DVD at the BBC and soon! It's now 30 years old (-at the time I write this review in June 2021-) & thus a 30th anniversary edition of what many believe to be a lost classic must come to DVD or possibly blu-ray!
