Up Jumped A Swagman

Up Jumped A Swagman

This marvellously entertaining, tongue-in-cheek musical romp stars Frank Ifield as a talented young Australian singer who moves to London in search of his big break, tries to woo a top model - while seemingly overlooking the beautiful publican's daughter who truly loves him - and gets tangled up with a gang of thieves!

Featuring Coventry-born Ifield's only feature-film appearance and made at the height of his international fame in 1965, Up Jumped A Swagman was inspired by the phenomenal success of Cliff Richard's musical films, interweaving captivating scenes of London life with some of Ifield's best-loved hits, including his breakthrough chart-topper I Remember You.

Also featuring Bond girl Suzy Kendall, noted character player Ronald Radd and Randall And Hopkirk (Deceased) star Annette André, the film is presented here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.
