A Kind Of Loving: John Schlesinger Season

Cocky young draughtsman Vic Brown (Alan Bates) looks certain to get all the best things in life: prospects at work, plans to travel abroad, and an attractive girlfriend in typist Ingrid Rothwell (June Ritchie). But the luckless Vic is destined to learn the hard way that the best things in life aren't always free.

Director John Schlesinger's award-winning debut remains among the most enduring entries in the British New Wave, not least for presenting the most nuanced and vulnerable of its so-called 'angry young men'.

The Consummate Professional: John Schlesinger at 100 is a UK-wide retrospective curated by Marc David Jacobs and Claire Nicolas, taking place from February to May 2026. More information on https://schlesinger-100.webflow.io/'
