JOHN OSBORNE AND THE GIFT OF FRIENDSHIP (2006)

TONY PALMER

Plot

A timely look at the playwright John Osborne who redefined British theatre in 1956 with 'Look Back In Anger'. Using previously lost material from his plays, 'The Entertainer', 'Luther', 'Inadmissable Evidence', 'Epitaph for George Dillon', 'A Patriot for Me', talking heads too numerous to mention, from the cream of British thespianism, and recollections of Osborne himself, this is a fascinating insight into a genuinely angry man and his defining body of work.
