This one’s an oddity. THE FAST LADY (1963). It’s a really rank romp, or rather a Rank (Organisation) romp that was filmed in 1962, released in 1963, but is a basic 1950s British film comedy template. It’s exactly the opposite of the main body of the 1960s Retrospective reviews. We saw it mainly by chance on TV, and noted it because Julie Christie is in an early starring role. Not recommended viewing, but worth a glance at the review to see why not!

A shocking film I’m sure – I don’t have to watch to know that! But directed by Ken Annakin and the cast are all well known. For a contrast – isn’t there a driving test in Otley? A little gem I’d forgotten about but must revisit – if only to check that it’s still a little gem. And another car related movie from just about the chronological beginning of the 60s – and Adam Faith’s second film – ‘Never let Go’
