That Kind of Girl
Aroview: Another gem rescued from obscurity by the BFI's Flipside label, this one deals with the hush-hush topic of venereal disease against a backdrop of smoky jazz clubs and 'Ban the Bomb' marches in 1960s London.
Gerry O'Hara's first feature is quaint but remains crisp and compelling as it charts the incidental affairs (and consequences) of a beautiful continental au pair with an earnest peace-protestor, a dashing young toff and an opportunistic older man.
