"The Wild One" had been banned in the U.K. 11 years earlier for fear of being a bad influence on the young, but "The Leather Boys" presents a similar portrait of English juvenile delinquency, this time with more female participation. Sidney J. Furie ("The Ipcress File") directs Rita Tushingham ("A Taste of Honey," "The Knack") as Dot, biker companion to Reggie (Colin Campbell). After being forced to keep their romance a secret, they decide to wed. As young delinquents, however, they are unable to keep faithful to one another, and their relationship turns destructive. Uncharacteristically bleak for the time and unwilling to conform to the sexual mores of their era, "The Leather Boys" is an entertaining look at youth gone wild. (For trivia buffs, scenes from this film comprise the Smiths 1988 music video "Girlfriend in a Coma").
