Joe Lampton (Laurence Harvey) arrives in a new town with burning ambitions and a head full of dreams. He may be just a lowly town hall clerk, but with his charm and good looks, he's determined to "marry into money" and set himself up for life. The ground-breaking Room At The Top won two Oscars and was nominated for four more, including Best Picture and Best Director (Jack Clayton). At the time, critics hailed it as the first British film to take sex seriously and to portray the realities of the industrial north. It caused outrage and sensation in equal measure. Today it remains an undisputed classic work of British Cinema and essential viewing. *MR
