(Lindsay Anderson, UK, 1968, 112 min)

An allegorical critique of the rigid social structures exemplified by the British public school system, If… caused a sensation upon its initial release and launched the career of charismatic young actor Malcolm McDowell. The rebellious student Mick Travis unleashes chaos on the authority figures around him as he increasingly blurs fantasy and reality. Although it technically premiered in December of 1968, If… was released in ‘69 and won the Golden Palm Award at that year’s Cannes Film Festival.
