Withnail and I Synopsis
WITHNAIL & I, 1987, Cineplex-Odeon Films, 107 min. Dir. Bruce Robinson. This black-comedy gem, produced by George Harrison's HandMade Films, stars Richard E. Grant and Paul McGann in the title roles as rarely employed but often inebriated actor friends who decide to escape the squalor of their Camden flat for a weekend at a country cottage owned by Withnail’s gay Uncle Monty. Filled with wonderful period details (the film is set in 1969) and hilariously quotable dialogue, WITHNAIL & I ranks among the best British films of the last 30 years.
