Butley (1974)

What the hell was this? Overacted, that's what! The late, great Alan Bates gets really bizarre in this.

We don't pity [Butley], even though we should. He somehow doggedly weathers each crisis, and we even feel a sneaky affection for him. Maybe that's the way the role is written, or maybe it's because of the double-reverse charm Bates brings to it.

Alan Bates is BRILLIANT! Perhaps the wriest and wittiest film I've ever seen.

Alan Bates' stage triumph in Simon Gray's Butley has been superbly recreated on the screen, with the added excellence of Harold Pinter's topnotch film directorial debut.

However realistic, Alan Bates' one-man one-room show as snide academic doesn't make a movie.
