...this is more or less the responsibility of Producer-Director Michael Winner, who has made a lot of second-rate movies in his time (Girl-Getters, The Jokers, I'll Never Forget What's 'Isname) but none so consummately awful as this.

Surprisingly the system sounds best when records are being played between sets...
Independence does not mean isolation. Stokely Carmichael's militant brand of black power has little sway with Williams. "This is a competitive society. We want to be able to cooperate and have an impact on its economic structure.... I don't have any delusions about operating in a vacuum separate from the rest of the economy...
