| Welcome to Britannia Hospital, an esteemed English institution marking its gala anniversary with a visit by the Queen Mother herself. But when investigative reporter Mick Travis (Malcolm McDowell) arrives to cover the celebration, he finds the hospital under siege by striking workers, ruthless unions, violent demonstrators, racist aristocrats, an African cannibal dictator and sinister human experiments financed by the Japanese. Can Mick survive one very strange day in these unhealthy halls or is the entire British Empire in critical condition? Britannia Hospital is the final film in the acclaimed Mick Travis trilogy from director Lindsay Anderson and writer David Sherwin. Alan Bates, Robbie Coltrane, Richard Griffiths, Joan Plowright, Robin Askwith and Mark Hamill lead an eclectic all-star cast in this biting black comedy that also features original music by Alan Price. |
