StudioCanal will release on Blu-ray Roy Boulting's film The Family Way (1966), starring Hayley Mills, Hywel Bennett, Avril Angers, John Comer, and Wilfred Pickels. The release will be available for purchase on May 4.
Synopsis: Based on Bill Naughton's warm-hearted play, The Family Way, directed by Roy Boulting is a thought-provoking exploration of the emotional impact of the Sixties sexual revolution. Featuring a soundtrack by Paul McCartney and starring Hayley Mills (Whistle Down the Wind) and Hywel Bennett (Loot) as two sensitive youngsters who fail to consummate their marriage, following the vulgar ribaldry of their typically working-class Lancashire wedding. The Family Way, considered controversial at the time, remains a warm, gentle comedy of manners, morals and manhood.
