The White Bus (1967)

豆知識

The White Bus is a 1967 British short drama film directed by Lindsay Anderson and starring Patricia Healey. The screenplay was adapted by Shelagh Delaney from a short story in her collection Sweetly Sings the Donkey (1963). It was the film debut of Anthony Hopkins.

Production

The film was originally commissioned by producer Oscar Lewenstein, then a director of Woodfall, as one third of an anthology feature entitled Red, White and Zero (1967), with the other sections supplied by Anderson's Free Cinema collaborators Tony Richardson and Karel Reisz from the other short stories by Shelagh Delaney.

The "first real day's shooting" was on 19 October 1965, and took about a month to complete.

The two other planned sections of the film developed into Richardson's Red and Blue (1967) and – Reisz having dropped out – Peter Brook's Ride of the Valkyrie (1967), neither of which are related to Delaney's work. Of these, only The White Bus received a theatrical release in the UK.
