Blu-ray: West 11 by Graham RicksonTuesday, 06 July 2021 The first ten minutes of West 11 are arresting, with a sweeping crane shot over an ungentrified West London and a zoom in through an attic bedsit window. The credits reveal that the screenplay is by Keith Waterhouse and Willis Hall, from a once-influential novel by Laura Del-Rivo. There’s a catchy, moody score by the great Stanley Black. The titles unfold over location footage that brilliantly establishes a sense of time and place; much of the film looks and feels so authentic. This was the young Michael Winner’s breakthrough feature, released in 1963, and this disc’s bonus interview with film historian Matthew Sweet invites us to try an intriguing thought experiment, to cast our minds back to “a time when Winner wasn’t a joke figure,” an edgy, inventive low budget film-maker instead of a pompous restaurant critic.
