    Editorial Reviews

    Screenwriter Bruce Robinson made his directorial debut with this British comedy. Withnail (Richard E. Grant) is an unsuccessful, pill-popping actor; "I," or Marwood (Paul McGann), is Withnail's roommate and another equally underemployed actor. The time is 1969: Withnail is fast becoming a burned-out relic of the '60s, while Marwood is trying to reassimilate into society. The two take a trip to the country in hopes of rejuvenating themselves, but things go from worse to even worse. Given the intimacy and insight of the screenplay and dialogue, one shouldn't be surprised that Bruce Robinson (who adapted the film from his own novel) based Withnail & I on his own experiences. The film proves that certain "Age of Aquarius" types were just as bollixed-up in Britain as they were in America. Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

    March 12, 2005: If you want to see where 'Sideways' came from, watch 'Withnail and I.' It's even better than 'Sideways' - darker, sharper, and funnier. Eminently quotable, too. I don't think I'll ever get tired of this one.

    July 19, 2004: If you're into trying 'new things,' shows about nothing and dark comedies, then this is the perfect movie for you. I fell in love with it...in a strange way.
