How very weird, Ive just confirmed a competition for this exact release and it will go live on the CPC Movies website very, soon.

Has anyone seen it?

Man In Black · Anime Mod

One of my top 20 favourite films. I was going to post about this when I read a few weeks ago that this film was coming to DVD but didn't because I figure no-one would care.

If... is a classic of late 60's allegorical surreal cinema. Lindsey Anderson directed this tale about a group of students who rebel against the stuffy, pompous, bullying, class affected oppressive system at a top bording school, which ends in a spectacular gun battle.

It's noted for having a number of scenes would suddenly jump to black & white which a lot of people saw as a bold artistic statement when the truth was they ran out of colour film and couldn't afford any more!

Malcolm McDowell puts in a career defining peformance here and you can see why he was given the lead in O' Lucky Man and of course the infamous A Clockwork Orange after watching If....

A cult classic that should be seen by everyone at least once.

DM, if you have a review copy then any chance of sending it this way please? Id love to see what they've done with it for the DVD?

If anyone wants to see a classic great movie. check out IF. The DVD release is the 23 of July, and I have actually had the chance to look at the DVD first-hand. it's special features are awesome. the same as the US's release, or even better since it also includes screenplay narrarated by Malcolm MacDowell.

Did you have problems adding to this post? MIB

Hi,

I went to the same school as I think it was the Director went to, It was a boarding school and did have stage like in the film, but was no way as crazy as the film apart from a few exceptions.

I rembember the English Teached kept bringing it up in class and said how the director / writer had passed all his exams and was a good example ?
