'Richard' Lester (as he was then billed) had just scored a huge hit with 'A Hard Day's Night' and before he moved on to 'Help' indulged himself with this raucous adaptation of Ann Jellicoe's play which today looks more of a museum piece than either of the films he made with the Fab Four (compounded with a light-hearted attitude to rape that certainly won't sit well with today's #MeToo generation).

Set off by a snazzy score by John Barry, in it's frantic desire to be 'with it' it gets rather tiring and it's sobering to reflect that most of the bright young things that inhabit it are now in their eighties; but if you look fast you'll spot a wetsuited eighteen year-old Charlotte Rampling who still looks just as icily handsome in her late seventies.

Schoolteacher Colin (Michael Crawford) is sexless in swinging London. He is both annoyed and jealous of his neighbor Tolen (Ray Brooks), a playboy who has a parade of beautiful women marching into his apartment. It's girls, girls, girls, everywhere girls. Nancy Jones (Rita Tushingham) is new to the city and learning her way.

This is light fun in the sex comedy space. Its editing and story telling is downright modern. The directing reminds me of Edgar Wright. It's great to do both sides of the sexual revolution story by following Nancy on her journey. I would get rid of the third flat-mate. She should have been the third. The rape is a surprising turn with one hilarious line. It's a fun look at 60's London and its changing sexual culture.
