Rattle Of A Simple Man
Comedy icon Harry H. Corbett stars opposite Diane Cilento in Charles Dyer's daring early-sixties drama of faltering romance between a shy northern football fan and a worldly London prostitute. Presented here in a brand new transfer from the original film elements, Rattle Of A Simple Man is both a touching romantic comedy and a finely observed study of human relationships directed by Oscar winner Muriel Box.
Percy Winthram is a naïve young man who still lives at home with his mum. In London for the Cup Final with his friends, he finds himself in a Soho strip club, where he meets blonde hostess Cyrenne. Accepting a bet from friend Ginger, he accompanies Cyrenne back to her flat, and a boast-worthy night of lust seems to be on the cards; however, drained of beer and bravado, Percy's innocence and vulnerability become all too evident...
