Trivia
Despite the film's reputation as being an archetypal 'Swinging London' movie it was actually shot on location in Stevenage in Hertfordshire

Goofs
Jamie says he is left handed, yet we see that he consistently uses his right hand (his brother Joe is left handed, however).

Alternate versions
For its UK cinema release the film was heavily cut from the original print with edits to dialogue, some sexual references, and all of Mary's topless footage during the bathing scene, and the uncut version was released overseas. The cut cinema print was often shown on BBC1 and the uncut version was shown by Channel 4. The 2010 DVD features both prints of the film.

9/10

A film of brazen optimism.

This film is a gem of the mid to late 60's but, at times, difficult to watch as the innocence portrayed by it's warm optimism jars with the reality of these times. I grew up in the 60's and saw that era in the fresh-faced tone of the film. 'Mulberry Bush' takes me back to a childhood Neverneverland. Was life so innocent even in those days? I like to think so but I'm pretty sure it wasn't. The problems we face today have always been with us so I am mystified how even in 1968 it was possible to make a film with such a tenuous grip on life's day to day realities. This film is magical escapism. I was eleven in 1968 and the scene of the three friends boisterously mucking around while walking home is poignant to me since that was my childhood. Suspend cynicism when watching it
