Perfect Friday is a 1970 British heist comedy film directed by Peter Hall from a screenplay by Anthony Greville-Bell and C. Scott Forbes, and starring Ursula Andress, Stanley Baker and David Warner. In the film, an audacious plan to rob a bank leads to double-cross.

Production

Dimitri de Grunwald had set up a new production and distribution consortium, the International Film Consortium, a co-op of independent film distributors throughout the world. They raised finance for a series of films produced by London Screenplays Ltd – The McMasters (1970), Perfect Friday, The Virgin and the Gypsy (1970), The Last Grenade (1970), and Connecting Rooms (1970).

The film starred Stanley Baker who later said of it: "I think he [Peter Hall] will produce film work as interesting as what he's done on the stage. ...What I like about Perfect Friday is that everybody lies to each other and everybody believes each other's lies. I don't know if the audience realises it, but every time the characters speak to each other, they're lying." Baker had just appeared in The Last Grenade for de Grunwald.

Peter Hall said the sex scenes "were meant to make fun of all those sex films that steam up the West End."
