Details.
Wiki.
Staircase is a 1969 British comedy-drama film adaptation of a two-character play, also called Staircase, by Charles Dyer.
The film, like the play, is about an ageing gay couple who own a barber shop in the East End of London. They discuss their loving but often volatile past together and ponder their possible future without each other, as Charles is about to go on trial for dressing as a woman in public.
The two main characters are named Charles Dyer (the name of the playwright/screenwriter) and Harry C. Leeds, which is an anagram of his name.
