Man Friday (1975 Jack Gold)

Robinson Crusoe (Peter O'Toole) 'civilises' Friday (Richard Roundtree) in Adrian Mitchell's overt critique of Colonialism (originally a play).

Legendary editor Anne Coates has fun cutting in reactions of a parrot, and in putting together a most amusing scene where the couple try to fly.

Filmed in Mexico. Most enjoyable.
