The famous Boulting Brothers film 'I'm All Right Jack!' was
released just over 50 years ago. The film, in which a blundering
innocent causes a nationwide strike, was a satire - but did it also
reflect social realities in 1959? Were trade unions and government
on a collision course at this time? Does it reflect other trends in
post-war Britain? This talk analyses the film and examines related
material in the public record of the late 1950s - some of the
results may seem surprising from today's perspective.
