London in the Raw

A Film by Arnold L. Miller

Following on from his Take Off Your Clothes and Live, and influenced by the worldwide success of Italian ‘Mondo’ movies, legendary British low-budget movie mogul Arnold Louis Miller concocted this fascinating exploitation-style documentary.

Peering behind the grimy net curtains of London life into seedy bars and clubs, and burrowing beneath the glittering facade of the capital’s galmorous cocktail lounges and casinos, London in the Raw presents a cynical, sometimes startling vision of life in 1960s London.
