Help! (1965)
An obscure Eastern cult that practices human sacrifice pursues Ringo after he unknowingly puts on a ceremonial ring (that, of course, won't come off). On top of that, a pair of mad scientists, members of Scotland Yard, and a beautiful but dead-eyed assassin all have their own plans for the Fab Four.

The Bliss of Mrs. Blossom (1968)
Harriet Blossom is married to Robert Blossom, a businessman who'd rather spend the night at his bra factory than at home with her. One day, Harriet's sewing machine breaks, so Robert sends a repairman, Ambrose, to fix it. It's lust at first sight for Harriet, who convinces Ambrose to hide out in the attic for a tryst. When her new beau shows no desire to leave, the pair begin a years-long love affair right under Robert's nose.

Agib and Agab (1953)
Free-form and anarchic in a very English way, this elaborate, gothic, handmade production was based on a tale from the ARABIAN NIGHTS and looks forward to FLAMING CREATURES and other underground movies from the 60s that merge lush fantasy with grimy reality. Art director Bruce Lacey stars as the ghoulish witch doctor who brings a dead body back to life.

Everybody's Nobody (1960)
Starring Lacey as the Mobile Absurd Non-entity, aka M.A.N. – a “synchronized, pressurized, energized, moisturized moron” – this angry, Goon-like film rips apart the factory-produced, ‘ideal home’-type lifestyle aggressively marketed in the post-war era with playful, witty panache.

The Alberts’ Channel Too (1964)
The crazy almost-launch to BBC2, starring The Alberts alongside Ivor Cutler, commissioned in the wake of their rule-changing love comedy theatre show, ‘An Evening of British Rubbish’. It’s Rubbish, but by Jingo – it’s British Rubbish!

The Preservation Man (1962)
The Preservation Man is about useless objects but here they're part of the artist Bruce Lacey's collection of random junk that is incorporated into his art with their original function is irrelevant. Sensibly, Russell and commentator Huw Wheldon keep analysis to a minimum, preferring to use the film as an excuse to spend a quarter of an hour in Lacey's amiable company.

The Plain Man's Guide to Advertising (1962)
A surreal mix of advertising tropes from the 1960s is very funny but has a neat anti-capitalist undertow.

Stella Chase (1974)
A moody, pastoral sci-fi tale about Stella Superstar and her travels across the universe. Vaseline around the camera lens and other early cinema techniques turn it into something truly beautiful.

Breaking Away to Come Together (1984)
Using only one camera, remote controlled mirrors and an external tilting device, Lacey alternates the perspective of angular planes on his face into that of a woman. Like archetypal statues, the images disintegrate, solidify and slowly re-assemble.

The Lacey Rituals (1973)
Bruce Lacey: 'People used to come and make documentaries about me, but they weren't interested in the day-to-day family life that I found extremely interesting and funny. So I decided to make that film myself. All the members of the family wrote down all the different day-to-day things that they wanted to be seen doing.'
