Morgan: A Suitable Case For Treatment

39th Academy Awards – Best Actress in a Leading Role (Vanessa Redgrave)
Q&A: Two-time Academy Award nominee and acclaimed director Stephen Frears will join BBC Arts’ Critic Phillip Bergson for a post-film Q&A.
“Nothing in this world seems to live up to my best fantasies.” A bizarre but brilliant depiction of changing times and a volatile youth through David Warner’s portrayal of a young man spiralling through an obsession with a woman, gorillas and Marxism
“Is it a marital farce, a swinging London romp, or a deeply subversive assault on the British class system and, indeed, all the values that society holds dear?” – Jon Savage, The Guardian
