This movie was director John Boorman's first feature and starred the British Invasion rock band The Dave Clark 5. Released in England as "Catch Us If You Can", HAVING A WILD WEEKEND was based on an original screenplay by Peter Nichols, who would go on to frankly bigger and better things the following year with his script for the smash hit GEORGY GIRL. For his part, John Boorman has disowned this film, but he too would have a great career, directing DELIVERANCE, HOPE AND GLORY and EXCALIBUR among others. Mr. Boorman is still with us. His last film to date, the superb QUEEN AND COUNTRY was released in 2014. HAVING A WILD WEEKEND stars Dave Clark, Barbara Ferris, The Dave Clark 5 (Clark, Mike Smith, Lenny Davidson, Denis Payton & Rick Huxley), Robin Bailey and Ronald Lacey, who like Boorman and writer Nichols, also went on to better things. Lacey you may remember was the menacing spectacled Nazi who gets his hand burned in RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK.

Condition Grades
Mint - An unused poster, almost as pristine as when initially printed. Exceedingly difficult grade to achieve.
Near Mint - Unused or carefully used, but showing some minor signs of age or storage wear. The folds on the poster should be clean - that is standard and not considered a flaw for pre-1980's movie posters.
Very Fine - Movie poster shows minimal signs of wear and usage with no pin holes, fold damage or paper loss. The image area should be clean and bright, the paper supple, not brittle.
Fine - A poster in average used condition. Movie poster might show pinholes in the corners, edge wear, small tears on edges or image area and minor discoloration.
Very Good - Below average condition due to being heavily used, but with little paper loss. Paper may show slight stains, soiling and larger pinholes in corners and small holes in the image area proper. Movie poster may also have defects such as light ink markings, tape on the back of the paper and substantial border damage. A poster in this category may be a restoration candidate.
Good - A very heavily used, worn and brittle movie poster. Paper may be missing chunks of paper, show heavy dirt, water stains and/or significant discoloration.
Fair - Heavily used as above with tape on verso or on front of poster with a substantial number of holes in poster, especially in image area.
Poor - Poster may have substantial paper and ink loss. A poster that has been heavily water damaged, or has been heavily stained. A poster with foreign material in substantial amounts, such as paint or marker on front or back of the paper. A dry mounted movie poster or one that has been laminated would fall into this category.
