Oh Boy Oh Boy
My favorite film, ever, O Lucky Man! by Lindsay Anderson & Malcolm McDowell (and also with Ralph Richardson, Alan Price, and of course Helen Mirren), is coming out on DVD at last next month! (click the link down below to pre-order it, as I just did)
If you haven't read it, this is a review/analysis of it--and its predecessor If....--that I wrote a while back.
Here are some scenes from this piece of brilliance too few people know(and from which, along with If.... and Withnail & I, Grant Morrison's been pinching lines from for years). Though at one time, it seemed the most common thing, along with its inferior (but worthy) sequel Brittania Hospital, you found in the video store. Perhaps it was there to capitalize on the popularity on VHS of the very, very different A Clockwork Orange.

When no one can tempt you
With heaven or hell
You'll be a lucky man!
You'd be better by far
To be just what you are
You can be what you want
If you are who you are
