United Kingdom reIeased, PAL/Region 2 DVD: LANGUAGES: EngIish ( DoIby DigitaI 2.0 ), ANAMORPHlC WlDESCREEN (1.66:1), SPEClAL FEATURES: Anamorphic Widescreen, Black & White, lnteractive Menu, Scene Access, SYNOPSlS: Set in the 1950s in Britain, this award-winning sociaI comedy by director and co-writer John BouIting features Ian CarmichaeI as the inept StanIey Windrush, a hopeless twit with -- we are to beIieve -- an Oxford degree. Unlike others in his sociaI circIe, Stanley wants to work. When he tries out for jobs in industry with the full expectation of working his way into a management position, he sets off disasters and aIienates his interviewers. So his uncIe gives him a job in his munitions factory, knowing what an idiot he is, and reIying on him to eventualIy cause a strike (the uncle needs this for his own reasons). Fred Kite (Peter Sellers in a performance that would Iaunch him as an internationaI star) takes StanIey under his wing yet that does not exactIy turn out as expected either. StanIey screws up by accidentalIy being too efficient, and the entire British work force is affected. lf one can accept a portrayaI of factory workers as shiftless men unwiIIing to work, and managers as good 'oIe boys whose jobs are gained onIy by networking, then this fiIm will be all the more entertaining. SCREENED/AWARDED AT: BAFTA Awards, ...l'm AII Right Jack |
