The Family Way- Great, classic British comedy about a couple who have to stay living at the grooms parents house after they get married. One of my all time favourites.
It also started life as a stage play and consequently every single line in the film is perfectly pitched. |

strictly speaking alfie is social satire but well worth watching.
life and death a surreal fantasy. wonderful. one of the best britfilms ever made. if only 1 film then this one. ice cold is a fine thriller set during ww2 but really about 4 people trying to cross n africa desert in a jeep ...... |

The Killing of Sister George, which isn't a horror as the title may suggest but a sixties drama staring Beryl Reid as a drunk lesbian soap star.
Theatre of Blood, Vincent Price as begrudged actor on a revenge spree against the critics who mauled him featuring a who's who of British acting talent. |
