An official collaboration with Studiocanal, these prints are part of the School for Scoundrels collection of stylish pop art prints inspired by the classic British comedy film, featuring Art & Hue’s signature halftone style (halftone is an age-old technique that uses dots to make up the printed image, similar to newspapers or comic books).

Also available as part of a group of 8 prints.
Premiering at London’s Warner cinema on the 24th of March in 1960, the film is based on a popular series of books on One-upmanship written by Stephen Potter, published during the 1940s and 1950s, in which he explained “how to win without actually cheating”.
The tongue-in-cheek self-help books gave tips on how to gain the psychological advantage over everyone else because otherwise, as Alastair Sim‘s version of Stephen Potter puts it in the film, “if you’re not one-up, you’re one-down”.
Starring Terry-Thomas, Ian Carmichael, Alastair Sim & Janette Scott, and classic set pieces, such as the tennis matches, Peter Ustinov as an uncredited co-writer, and cameos from John Le Mesurier and Irene Handl, School for Scoundrels is a pleasurable example of Mid-Century British cinema that charms to this day. School for Scoundrels was art director Terence Verity’s last film before returning to architecture. He went on to design the M6 motorway service station Charnock Richard.
