Barney Platts-Mills' stylish and compelling follow-up to the critically acclaimed Bronco Bullfrog relocates the youthful struggle for social and personal freedom to 1970s boho London, the suburbs of Surrey, and the wilds of Scotland. A gorgeous, pouting Bruce Robinson (who would go on to write and direct Withnail & I) plays Peter, pausing from finishing his first novel to shack up with sugar-sweet receptionist Ann (Susan Penhaligon). Sex, drugs, and some rigorous rural living ensue, to the dismay of Ann's well-to-do parents. Will Peter choose domestic conformity or pursuit of the artistic ideal? Thought-provoking, witty and compelling, Private Road is well worth rediscovering.
