Playwright John Osborne, author of Look Back in Anger, looked back in anything but anger in this 1963 comedy, for which he wrote the screenplay adaptation of Henry Fielding’s playful period novel. Downton Abbey fans should enjoy this sexy, playful romp through the British class system, starring Albert Finney, in the title role, as a mischievous man with mysterious origins. His many conquests include Sophie, played with unforgettable vigor and abandon by Susannah York.
