Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Archetypal squalid British realism in an effectively scripted and well acted version of John Osborne's now dated play about the miseries induced by angry young graduate Jimmy Porter, railing against society and taking out his frustrations on his long-suffering wife (Ure). Burton is too old for the part, and Richardson's turgidly literal approach is none too involving.Author: GA
