Morgan - A Suitable Case For Treatment (DVD)

Anarchic Londoner Morgan Delt, a working class artist and self-confessed dreamer with a gorilla-fixation tries to regain the affections of his upper-class ex-wife Leonie. Leonie rejects Morgan's attempts at reconciliation and when she informs him of her plans to marry stuffy art dealer, Charles Napier, Morgan slips off the mental deep end into a vivid fantasy life. Morgan enacts a series of bizarre gags and stunts in an often hilarious campaign to win Leonie back... Boasting a brilliant cast including Vanessa Redgrave (Howard's End, Blow Up), who earned a Best Actress Oscar nomination for her role, and David Warner (Tron, The Omen), Morgan, A Suitable Case For Treatment is a 60s cult classic adapted from David Mercer's BBC Sunday night play and directed by Karel Reisz (The French Lieutenant's Woman, Saturday Night And Sunday Morning). Cut with dream sequences from King Kong and Tarzan films, Morgan's depiction of surreal madness and dark humour made it the swinging sixties wildest, funniest and most provocative comedy.
