the rocking horse (1962)


"Gonna wake the bastards up!"
An unnamed young rebel goes up the west end of London to pick up girls with his mate, and ends up bored and wandering with a young girl, before going back to her place.
A short but interesting slice of life. Revealing a time, pre-beatles, before London started to swing, and soho's coffee bars were where it was at, and probably shocked with its depiction of casual sex.
