Though it may be distinguished by its virtuosic comedic performances from Terry-Thomas and Peter Sellers, I'M ALL RIGHT, JACK, John Boulting's sly satire of class struggle, is a comic gem in its own right. The film stars Ian Carmichael as Stanley Windrush, a recent Oxford graduate and old money aristocrat who decides to work for a living. Deciding to keep his background a secret, Stanley takes a menial position at his uncle's armaments factory, where his incompetence arouses the suspicion of his fellow labourers and the sympathy of the loony Works Committee boss (Sellers). Soon, the good-hearted Stanley finds himself in the middle of the complex class struggle between management and labour and the pawn in his wicked uncle's crooked scheme. The scenes at Windrush Senior's naturist colony, where Stanley goes for advice, are particularly delightful. I'M ALL RIGHT, JACK is noteworthy for also for winning two BAFTA awards in 1960 for Peter Sellers' performance and for Best British Screenplay.
