Alan Price : O Lucky Man O_Lucky_Man

In O Lucky Man!, Travis progresses from coffee salesman (working for sleazy boss Mr Duff) to personal assistant to Sir James Burgess, an evil mastermind.

During his journey, Travis learns the amoral lesson, reinforced by numerous songs in the soundtrack by Alan Price, that he must abandon his principles in order to succeed, but unlike the other characters he meets he must retain a detached idealism that will allow him to distance himself from the evils of the world:

a fact which causes the film to often be considered a reappropriation of Candide by Voltaire. As one of the film's songs says:

"Smile while you're makin' it. Laugh while you're takin' it. Even though you're fakin' it. Nobody's gonna know".

In parallel with Travis' experiences, the film shows 1960s Britain retreating from its imperial past but managing to retain some influence in the world by means of corrupt dealings with foreign dictators.

The film originally began as a script written by McDowell about his experiences as a coffee salesman in his late teens and early 20s.
