Foreign Body is a 1986 British romantic comedy film directed by Ronald Neame and adapted from the 1975 Roderick Mann novel of the same name.
The film stars Victor Banerjee, Warren Mitchell, Denis Quilley, and Amanda Donohoe.
Banerjee stars as Ram Das, a jobless Indian man who, tired of life in mid-1970s Calcutta, steals money from his father in order to afford a passage to Britain and while there, falls in love with a white woman.
[1] Walter Goodman of The New York Times didn't give the film a good review stating: The occasional sharp line in Celine La Freniere's screenplay points up the general dullness of the plot, which originated in a novel by Roderick Mann.
It is a collection of passingly amusing incidents without a strong connecting line or a consistent tone.
