Made in England

Delving into the history of English cinema, one film at a time. Hosted by Jack McInroy.

The Old Crowd (1979) with Alex Cox

Lindsay Anderson made his TV debut in 1979 with The Old Crowd, an Alan Bennett-scripted satire about an upper-middle class dinner party where cracks are appearing in the walls of George and Betty’s upper-middle class home, and in society at large. 

Alex Cox, writer-director of Repo Man and Sid & Nancy, and original Moviedrome presenter, joins Jack McInroy to discuss the film. 

Alex is currently crowdfunding what he’s billing as his last film, a western adaptation of Gogol’s Dead Souls. You can back the project here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alexcoxfilms/my-last-movie
