It is practically impossible to avoid comparison with Vigo's Zero for Conduct, and this is most assuredly not to the advantage of If. The problem is that Lindsay Anderson's film sticks slightly too close to realistic, and credulous, so that the vision of the revolt of the trouble-makers in a repressive English boys' school looks a bit like apple-polishing (or grenade-polishing) for the rebels. Still, it is pretty strong stuff, and imaginative, and finally rousing. With Malcolm McDowell. (1968) — Duncan Shepherd
