Rent Billy Liar (1963)


Tom Courtenay is Billy Liar in one of the most memorable and universally acclaimed British film of the Swinging Sixties. Running from an unsympathetic working-class family, a pair of demanding fiancees and an insecure job at an undertakers, Billy escapes into a wild fantasy worlds where he realises his dream ambitions. As work and family pressures build to new intolerable levels, Julie Christie enters his drab life and offers Billy the one real chance he'll ever get to leave the past behind. Based on Keith Waterhouse's novel and play, it is a warm, witty and sensitive film, which later turned into both a successful TV series and stage musical, making Billy a universal figure of the period.
