The Tiger Lily stars Diane Cilento as a TV personality whose show is on the brink of being axed by her boss (John Gregson, in his last cinema role) and whose relationship with a younger, out of work actor (Leigh Lawson) is also threatening to dissolve. Set amongst a harsh, brutalist landscape reminiscent of early Cronenberg movies, The Tiger Lily also benefits from a superb psychedelic soundtrack by Alan Blakley, formally of The Tremeloes, and an unknown female singer calling herself 'Rasputin'. Very obscure these days, The Tiger Lily played Soho's Cameo Moulin cinema in 1977 as the co-feature to Serge Gainsbourg's film Je t'aime Moi Non Plus (1976) starring Jane Birkin and Joe Dallesandro.
