Sinopsis:

Part romantic comedy, part slapstick, and easily the most British film to ever have ‘French’ in its title, cine-maverick Ken Russell’s feature debut sets about mocking the masculine ego and exposing the ‘sex sells’ mantra as it follows the fortunes of deckchair attendant-turned-publicity officer Jim Stephens (James Booth, The Man Who Had Power Over Women).

In an attempt to revive the fortunes of run-down Gormleigh-on-Sea, Stephens sets up a film festival, inviting continental starlet Françoise Fayol (Marisa Mell, Danger: Diabolik) to be its main attraction. Soon, he finds that rivalries with neighbouring seaside towns develop, and realises that his time might be better spent getting acquainted with local journalist Judy (Alita Naughton, Gideon’s Day).

Co-starring the much-loved Roy Kinnear (The Deadly Affair), and featuring dialogue by the legendary Johnny Speight (Till Death Us Do Part), French Dressing features some of the most gorgeous British seaside cinematography ever committed to screen as it takes a reflexive swipe at the film business.
