Bartleby (1970)

Drama
Paul Scofield, Robin Askwith
Updated to 1960s London, this faithful adaptation of Herman Melville's classic follows a young accounting clerk rebelling against his employer by responding to demands to do work by saying, "I prefer not to." This is carried on ad absurdum until the office is in chaos because the other employees must do Bartleby's work. His boss is unable to fire or help him, and eventually has him placed in a mental hospital.—Anonymous
