Movie
Withnail and I is a 1987 black comedy film produced by HandMade Films. It was written and directed by Bruce Robinson and is based on his life in London in the late 1960s.

The film has tragic and comic elements (particularly farce) and is notable for its period music and many quotable lines. It has been described as one of Britains biggest cult films.PlotThe film depicts the lives and misa...view more
