Richard Attenborough (Brighton Rock) is Jack Read, a working‐class boy and the guinea pig of the title, who is given a scholarship to Saintbury, an exclusive public school. Faced with the snobbery of his new classmates, he tries to gain acceptance from not only them, but also some of his teachers. (British Film Institute (BFI))
