Interesting short film by Lindsay Anderson, 20 October 2010
Author: runamokprods from US

Interesting 55 minute short by the great Lindsay Anderson, from a Shelagh Delaney short story. A girl quits her dull job, and goes on a surrealistic bus tour of a dilapidated Manchester. Along for the ride are a strange mix, including a lascivious vicar, slightly cracked lord mayor (Arthur Lowe, always great), etc. Many of the techniques that became part of Anderson's 'If' and 'O Lucky Man' first show up here.(e.g. mixing color and B+W film stocks). I'm not sure what it all means, but it's mostly interesting and entertaining in a Brechtian/Anderson dark humored, politically satirical way. Some terrific images.
