Bread is a 1971 British film directed by Stanley Long. The BFI called it "an unusual mixture of pop festival documentary and saucy teen comedy." It was the first film Long directed and he would direct most of his subsequent films. Long called it "a terrible film in a way." Plot Some friends leave a musical festival and squat on the estate of a rich man. They get permission to stay there provided they paint the house. The friends decide to organise a pop festival. Cast Anthony Nigel as Mick Peter Marinker as Jeff Dick Haydon as Trev Noelle Rimmington as Cathy Liz White as Marty Yocki Rhodes as Terry Michael McStay as Rafe Penny Brahms as Jan Sean Lynch as Danny Production The movie was financed by the backers of Groupie Girl. The film was based on the real life exploits of the co writer Suzanne Mercer. The film opens with footage from the Isle of Wight Pop Festival. Long says the distributors were "really into sex films" and "didn't quite understand the pop culture" while "we were trying to make films that were more interesting" so "they got films made fairly seriously on the culture that existed at the time but they didn't get what they wanted. We were anti explicit nudity for the sake of it... We got caught between two stools."

“When it is about someone's else bread, it is easy to say "I will give it to you", but the time of actual giving can be as far away as the sky. If you go after the man who said "I will give it to you", he will say "I cannot give it to you -- the bread has just been finished up".”
