About Survival of the Fittest
Molly Cowper is a wilful 80-year-old widow who firmly believes the world is there for her convenience. Her mild-mannered son Geoffrey does his best to help her keep her independence, but Molly keeps trampling on people.
Directed by Martyn Friend, Survival of the Fittest leans on a strong ensemble — Timothy West, Jean Anderson, Nerys Hughes — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1990.
