The Boy Friend (1971) #WarnerArchive #WarnerBros #TheBoyFriend Working at the height of his formidable powers, Ken Russell braids a whole new layer of story onto the hit stage musical that made Julie Andrews a star and opens it up to some astonishing flights of fancy. Wrapping a narrative frame around the original - a seaside theatrical company mounts a production of the '20s musical spoof The Boy Friend - allows Russell, in turn, to explore and parody the conventions of '30s musicals with elaborate fantasy sequences, slapstick, and sentiment. This is the restored 'director's cut'/roadshow presentation! Directed By Ken Russell Starring Twiggy, Christopher Gable, Max Adrian Subscribe to watch more Warner Archive videos: https://www.youtube.com/c/warnerarchi...
