• Plot: Oscar® nominee Richard Burton delivers a 'passionate' performance and Claire Bloom, Mary Ure, Edith Evans and Gary Raymond give 'exciting stand-out portrayals' (Los Angeles Times) in this 'powerful and engrossing motion picture' (Cue) that bristles with 'brilliant dialogue' (The Hollywood Reporter) and raw human emotion.; ; Rage! His eyes blaze with it and his body seethes with it. Jimmy Porter is a man consumed with anger, and every moment he spends in the rank, suffocating squalor of the English factory town that entraps him, propels him closer and closer towards self-annihilation. But Jimmy's savage cruelty is not limited to himself. He also hurts the ones he loves - again and again. And this time, he's about to commit and act so brutal, so destructive, that his wife Alison, her best friend Helena, and even Jimmy himself may not be able to survive!
