Episode 71 Part 2- The Ruling Class - The Wrap Up

A decade under the influence

Hi film friends. Today your decade under the influence crew takes on the entire ruling class, with our long knives drawn. Actually we just take on the movie (The ruling class 1972) which takes on the class system in English specifically and the world in general.

A mighty task indeed. Peter O’toole and Director Peter Medak in preparation for this epic went to Ireland for a couple of weeks, they’d wake up cook breakfast discuss and act out the script all day, and then head to the pub and sing.

Sounds more than about right.

Film was written by Peter Barnes, and also stars Alastair Sim, Arthur Lowe, Coral Browne, and James Villiers. We do hope you enjoy our deep dive into the Ruling Class, also O’toole has bad hair here, I’m sorry but I said it. Please let us know what you think. You could gives us all the stars too,

why not?
