Half a century on, the fascination with the 1960s continues to generate strong intellectual and emotional responses - both positive and negative - and this is no less true in the arena of film. Making substantial use of a range of new and underexplored archive resources that provide a wealth of new information, insight and knowledge on the period in question, this book brings fresh perspectives on the major resurgence of creativity and international appeal experienced by British cinema in the 1960s.
