[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 221002, member: 23"] [CENTER][B][I]All The Way Up [/I][/B](1970) [MEDIA=youtube]KRTMnYvgxQs[/MEDIA] From "Granada Films". Very enjoyable. A great cast with many familiar faces of the time (Warren Mitchell at his smarmiest; Richard Briers giving great sexual frustration; Adrienne Posta; Frank Thornton; even Valerie Leon showed up), some nice lines and a decent plot. A bit edgier than I was expecting. The strip joint got dangerously close to full frontal. And there's the whole "knocked up and trying to blackmail a man into marriage" angle. The social climbing angle, with the aspiration to be "detached" was brilliant. All the outrageous lengths to hide the extreme family dysfunction from the neighbours, along with the one-upmanship. One of my favourite lines was when Mitchell's character was about to open champagne and asked his daughter to "open the French window so next door can hear the pop". All this... and a theme song by The Scaffold. What more could you want?[/CENTER] [/QUOTE]
