Mixing color and black and white as audaciously as it mixes fantasy and reality, If…. remains one of cinema’s most unforgettable rebel yells.

(The film was in production at the time of the student uprisings in Paris in May, 1968.) McDowell plays Mick Travis, a character Anderson ...

In his three films, Anderson had covered all aspects, politics, and institutions of British Society from 1968 to 1982 with its complex system of class differences and privileges.
