The British Film Institute has announced that it will celebrate the 50th anniversary of Mike Leigh's Nuts in May (1976) with a brand new Blu-ray release, which is scheduled to arrive on the market on August 10th.
Description: First shown in the legendary BBC1 Play for Today strand, the film, newly restored in 4K by the BBC, will be presented on Blu-ray for the first time to mark its 50th Anniversary.
Nuts in May follows an uptight couple, Candice Marie and Keith, played by Alison Steadman and Roger Sloman, whose idyllic camping trip to Dorset descends into social chaos; things go from bad to worse as they contend with their difficult fellow campers.
The film has been hugely influential on British comedy films and TV shows, such as Sightseers, Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer's At Home with Vic and Bob and The League of Gentlemen and is an inspiration for many, including actor and writer Dexter Fletcher, who has previously introduced a screening of it at BFI Southbank.
The Blu-ray disc will be packaged with extras to be announced and an illustrated booklet.
