Malcolm McDowell
1968
Here's the
official hype:
Synopsis
Lindsay Anderson’s If. . . . is
a daringly anarchic vision of British society, set in a boarding school
in late-sixties England. Before Kubrick made his mischief iconic in A
Clockwork Orange, Malcolm McDowell made a hell of an impression
as the
insouciant Mick Travis, who, along with his school chums, trumps
authority at every turn, finally emerging as violent savior against the
draconian games of one-upmanship played by both students and the powers
that be. Mixing color and black and white as audaciously as it mixes
fantasy and reality, If. . . .
remains one of cinema’s most
unforgettable rebel yells.
