Mr Smith is a 1976 short film written and directed by Adrian Lyne and starring Peter Barkworth. It was often shown as a 'filler' in London's West End cinemas along with horror or soft porn films such as Emmanuelle. It was Lyne's second short film, following The Table (1973), and was well received at the London Film Festival.[1]
The film traces a day in the life of middle-aged Mr Smith (Barkworth), which ends with his suicide.[2]
