Third part of a trilogy featuring the character "Mick Travis," played by Malcolm McDowell in each of the three movies. The first two being If.... (1968) and O Lucky Man! (1973). All were directed by Lindsay Anderson.
This movie is considered a critique, amongst other things, of England's National Health Service (NHS).
The monologue said by the robotic voice of the machine-wired brain of "Genesis" at the end of the movie is the "What a piece of work is a man" speech from William Shakespeare's Hamlet.
Some British critics walked out of its first screening at the Cannes Film Festival.
