HOW TO GET AHEAD IN ADVERTISING (1989)

BRUCE ROBINSON

Plot

Grant is an ad-man so brilliant he can sell shampoo to the bald but his creative genius starts to destroy him when he can't get his head round a new boil cream. Things come to a head when he himself develops a boil which talks to him. A superb satire on 1980s greed from the "Withnail and I" team.
