Abstract:"Woodfall Films' portmanteau feature is a major rediscovery, never before released in the UK. Comprised of three compelling tales, it brings together a trio of Britain's most innovative directors and embodies the creativity and audacity at the heart of Swinging Sixties cinema. Comic legend Zero Mostel mixes slapstick and surrealism as a tardy opera star traversing London in The Ride of the Valkyrie, while The White Bus, scripted by Shelagh Delaney, blends realism, poetry and New Wave detachment as a young woman travels home to the north of England. Tony Richardson directs Vanessa Redgrave in the final part of the film, Red and Blue, a musical, melancholic romantic reverie."
