A remake of Straw Dogs reminds us that 1971, which also spawned A Clockwork Orange and 10 Rillington Place, was a wonderful annus horribilis of shock cinema in Britain
Recently, in honour of this week's release of the Straw Dogs remake, an interviewer from Film 2011 listened to me indulgently while I rambled on the subject of 1971 And All That.
1971 was the year of highly controversial and violent movies like Sam Peckinpah's original Straw Dogs and Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange. It was also the year of Dirty Harry, and I have myself blogged about William Friedkin's 1971 film The French Connection, a pretty brutal film positively drenched in 1971-ness. What was it that made the year 1971 the annus mirabilis (or horribilis) of shock cinema in Britain? It could have been something to do with the fact that this was the year of John Trevelyan's retirement as a markedly liberal director of...

British-born director known for Anne of the Thousand Days and Mary, Queen of Scots
The film and television director Charles Jarrott, who has died of cancer aged 83, began his career during a golden period of British TV drama, working on Armchair Theatre and The Wednesday Play in the 1960s alongside writers and directors such as Ken Loach, Dennis Potter and David Mercer. Both series were presided over by the Canadian producer Sydney Newman, who encouraged original work – what he called "agitational contemporaneity" – and had an astonishing impact. But in 1969 Jarrott's career took a different turn when he left for Hollywood, thereby increasing his income a hundredfold, while having to contend with far less adventurous material. His best films were his first, two Elizabethan costume dramas, Anne of the Thousand Days and Mary, Queen of Scots, enlivened by the Oscar-nominated performances of Richard Burton (Henry VIII), Geneviève Bujold (Anne Boleyn) and...
