A disillusioned, angry university graduate comes to terms with his grudge against middle-class life and values, a classic example of kitchen sink realism that explores class differences and the tensions between two unhappy marriages in 1950s Britain. Based on John Osborne's play about a love triangle involving an intelligent but disaffected working-class young man and his upper-middle-class wife, this British drama stars Richard Burton as Jimmy Porter, a character who embodies the anger and frustration of a society he feels has passed him by.
