BFI is a film and charitable organisation based in the United Kingdom. They are dedicated to promoting and preserving filmmaking and television in the country. With their extensive collection, they maintain the world's largest film archive known as the BFI National Archive. This archive has been previously referred to by different names over the years, including National Film Library, National Film Archive, and National Film and Television Archive. In addition to their archival work, BFI also operates two prominent venues in London - BFI Southbank (formerly known as the National Film Theatre) and London IMAX cinema. These locations offer an immersive cinematic experience for movie enthusiasts.

Shot by the great Oswald Morris, the film opens with an extraordinary scene set in a jazz club. Trumpeter Jimmy Porter (Burton) – a disillusioned, college-educated bloke, raging against the Establishment – works by day on a sweet stall in the market. His downtrodden, middle-class wife suffers the brunt of his tirades, but when he vents his anger by having an affair with her best friend it causes untold misery for everyone he knows.

Tony Richardson’s feature debut is the epitome of the kitchen-sink drama that spawned a new genre of British social protest films and heralded the liberated swinging sixties. Apposite for current times and still uncomfortably compelling.
