Allegorical drama from director Lindsay Anderson in which a group
of non-conformist students lead a revolt against their oppressive
masters at an English private school. Parallels are drawn in the
film between the bullying, inflexible and snobbish approach of the
schoolmasters to their pupils, led by the rebellious Mick Travis
(Malcolm McDowell), and the dysfunction and injustice of the
British class system at large. As Mick and his gang of cohorts
indulge in acts of petty disobedience, such as heading into town to
try and seduce a local waitress, the school's acts of retribution,
led by Rowntree (Robert Swann), become increasingly cruel and
malicious. Finally, the students are provoked into open rebellion,
the bloody nature of which shocked a number of commentators at the
time and led to claims that the film aimed to provoke a violent
uprising in society as a whole.

Every year, barrister Alan McKim (John Gregson) and wife Wendy
(Dinah Sheridan) compete against Alan's friend (and Wendy's former
beau), Ambrose Claverhouse (Kenneth More), in the London to
Brighton vintage car race. This time round, however, Alan's 1904
roadster, 'Genevieve', breaks down on route. Angered by Ambrose's
jokes at the expense of his beloved car, Alan bets his rival that
he can beat him on the return journey to London - and the race is
on! Larry Adler's harmonica score was nominated for an Oscar. Also
included is a 'making of' documentary.

Margaret Rutherford and Robert Morley star in this British comedy.
The Drossmouth repertory company are having enough trouble
preparing for their production of the poorly-written melodrama
'Tarnished Gold' when the play's indomitable author Catherine
Beckwith (Rutherford) arrives. She soon locks horns with the play's
producer Harry Blacker (Morley), a confrontation which quickly
escalates into out-and-out war.
The first four films from the hugely popular 'Carry On' series. In
'Carry On Sergeant' (1958), a sergeant (William Hartnell) takes a
bet that the last recruits he trains will win the 'Star Squad'
award. The sergeant's inept young charges include Bob Monkhouse,
Kenneth Williams, Charles Hawtrey and Kenneth Connor. In 'Carry On
Teacher' (1959), trouble erupts at a secondary school when
inspectors arrive to evaluate the teachers' work. A group of pupils
(led by a youthful Richard O'Sullivan) who don't want their teacher
transferred to a different job play up. In 'Carry On Nurse' (1959),
the patients in a men's hospital ward decide to revolt against the
staff, as led by the indomitable Matron (Hattie Jacques). Finally,
in 'Carry On Constable' (1959), police sergeant Wilkins (Sid James)
has a new batch of dubious recruits on his hands, whose idea of
covert surveillance involves dressing up in drag.
