Screening of ‘Britannia Hospital’ on 13-Sep-10
Venue: The Paradise By Way of Kensal Green, 19 Kilburn Lane, London, W10 4AE
Dir Lindsay Anderson, GB 1982
With Leonard Rossiter
The final part of Anderson’s trilogy that began with the machine-gun toting public schoolboys of If… sees Malcolm McDowell’s Mick Travis as an investigative reporter on the trail of a contemporary Frankenstein, as protestors try to stop the Queen Mother making an official visit. Made just as ‘Thatcher’s Britain’ was beginning to take shape, Britannia Hospital is an unlikely comedy with a biting sense of social justice.
