Review of Tony Richardson’s 1961 film, A TASTE OF HONEY (linked). Based on Shelagh Delaney’s 1958 stage play. There is a linked review to the 2014 production. The film is a true classic, introducing Rita Tushingham. The cast were Murray Melvin, Dora Bryan, Robert Stephens and Paul Danquah. Lots of photos in the review as there are so many online.

Review of Tom Jones from 1963, directed by Tony Richardson. It was one of the most influential Sixties films, even though it takes place in 1745. Adapted by John Osborne from Henry Fieldings 18th century novel. It was a romp, it was a film that won so many awards. Albert Finney as Tom Jones with Susannah York, David Warner, Joyce Redman, Hugh Griffiths, Julian Glover. Definitely one to revisit.
