Raising the Wind (1961)
Director: Gerald Thomas
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
The Doctor in the House formula recycled, with music replacing medicine, but otherwise incorporating the usual college pranks, overbearing but golden-hearted authority figure (yes, James Robertson Justice again) and U-certificate sex. It must have seemed like a museum piece even while it was being edited.Author: BBa
