RITA, SUE AND BOB TOO

RITA, SUE AND BOB TOO

Country: UK
Year: 1987
Duration: 93'


In Bradford, Yorkshire, Rita and Sue are
babysitters. One evening Bob accompanies
them home and flirts with them.
The two girls respond enthusiastically.
A problem-less, solid, proletarian ménage
à trois, in which friendship wins out over
jealousy. Carried along by the tireless pace
and chatter of Rita and Sue, this is the
only film comedy made by the television
director Alan Clarke.
