"Up the Junction" is a 1968 British film directed by Peter Collinson and starring Dennis Waterman, Maureen Lipman, Suzy Kendall, Liz Fraser, Michael Gothard, Alfie Bass, Aubrey Morris, Billy Murray and Mike Reid. It is based on the book of the same name "Up the Junction" by Nell Dunn and was adapted by Roger Smith. With a soundtrack by Manfred Mann it vividly captured the feel of what it was like to live in that decade in a similar manner to another film of the era, "Alfie".
