Review of Billy Liar

Funny tragi-comedy

Billy Fisher wants to escape his dull repeatative life but when a chance to actually get away announces it's self he bottles it and decides to go back to his old safe life and continue to live in his world of fantasy and dreams. Billy Liar represents the 60's really well showing how people under the old framework of soceity wanted to escape their lives but were just too scared to. It also shows the people who had changed there lives who had a free existance from rules and expectations. A good watch if not for the laughs but the social observations.

7/10
