Synopsis

A street-level view of a strip club in Soho and its MC, played by Anthony Newley. He is the kind of man who has so many hustles in his life that he can barely keep them straight. Throughout the course of this film, all his debts — personal and private — are called in, and he finally makes his amends onstage into a microphone. Sort of a Soho KILLING OF A CHINESE BOOKIE with the advantage of Newley’s strange charm and comic timing. A real curio.
