The System [1964]

Comments and Reviews


albert 18th Apr 2019		Supposedly filmed around Brixham and Torbay. I visited a friend who lives down there and while on a pub crawl he pointed out various locations that were used for the shoot; though he did not recommend the film.



Dr Doom SUBS 14th Mar 2016		Rated 7/10 Ollie Reed and his gang work the summer season in the fictional seaside town Roxham and have a "System" for picking up girls. They drive around in an open top Rolls Royce and Ollie is the King of the pack. The film is very much a product of it's time and features quintessential English pastimes such as taking the piss out of German tourists and complaining about trains running late. Not the most progressive of 60s movies. Reed is stuck between a rock and a hard place, he feels superior to the holidaymakers he mocks and calls grocks but he feels inferior and awkward with the upper class holidaymakers who also frequent the resort. An interesting timepiece and well worth a watch for Oliver Reed's terrible dancing if nothing else. 5 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
