Additional Information
Tolen (Ray Brooks) has it. Colin (Michael Crawford) doesn't. "It" is the knack for getting women into bed. After obtaining lessons from the master, Colin buys a bed big enough for his conquests. This leads Colin and his friend Tom (Donal Donnelly) to Nancy (Rita Tushingham), an attractive innocent country girl. The boys vie for her affections, but when she meets Tolen, she faints, overcome by his charm. Nancy awakens thinking she has been raped and points her finger at the hapless Colin.<BR>As films age they are commonly seen as "tame by today's standards." This is not the case with this outrageously loose 1965 portrait of Swinging London. A revolutionary film, this amoral slapstick combined the rapid-fire-gag approach used by director Richard Lester in his previous work with the Beatles (A HARD DAY'S NIGHT, HELP!) with the awareness of technique popularized by the French New Wave. The style of filmmaking perfectly captures the time period and was also highly influential to the film school generation of the late 1960s and early 1970s. John Barry's playful score fusing jazz and pop sets the frenetic pace. Though purely cinematic, the film is based on a popular play by Ann Jellicoe.

    An outstanding seller. I have bought a number of DVDs from them, and they cannot be faulted. Excellent and friendly communication, thoughtful packaging, and posted swiftly via the Royal Mail . The discs are always in better condition than described, and are spotlessly clean. I cannot recommend them highly enough, as they set the standard for all the other sellers. Thank you for your outstanding service. ⭐️

    I thought this is a very very entertaining film.Very creative and funny and interesting.I read that it appears dated (rotten tomatoes) but films of the London sixties feel so alive and positive.I sense a 'woke' reaction against the ending when Rita Tushingham shouts Rape at the various men.Stop and think about, the ending is a lot deeper than a scared critic defensive response.Ricgard Lester has produced a gem here. I love Rita Tushingham.Bought a T-Shirt with her face on.

  • Aaah! Sweet memories!

    So wonderful to see this flick again after all these years. You have to be of a certain age I suppose. I assume it's not been on TV of late due to the 'rape' scenes. Probably wouldn't be considered very PC these days. Great fun though - I loved it.

  • Back to the sixties!

    It's a long time since I saw this film. It's very dated, but it brings back happy memories of the sixties.
