One of my all-time favorites, Mick (Turnbull's also).
I'm not sure what you mean when you call the plot "slackly-told". If you mean that it takes a couple of viewings and a little figuring out to understand what's going on, then yes, I'd agree.
But that was one of the things that made the film fun for me. I must have watched it about 10-12 times.
AAMOF, I loaned my copy to JG and I'm still awaiting his review.
