When they take a holiday "by mistake" at the country house of Withnail's flamboyantly gay uncle, Monty, they encounter the unpleasant side of the English countryside: tedium, terrifying locals and torrential rain.

About Withnail & I
Two struggling, out-of-work actors, the perpetually anxious Marwood and his acerbic, alcoholic companion Withnail, find themselves stuck in a rut of squalid living, endless pub visits, and frustrating trips to the unemployment office. Desperate for a change of scenery, they impulsively decide to escape to the countryside, seeking refuge in a cottage owned by Withnail's eccentric Uncle Monty. However, their idyllic getaway quickly turns into a nightmare as they encounter the harsh realities of rural life: unrelenting rain, unwelcoming locals, and a persistent lack of basic necessities. Adding to their woes, Uncle Monty's unexpected arrival threatens to disrupt their already fragile peace, forcing them to confront not only the challenges of their surroundings but also the complexities of their own friendship.

How to stream with ExpressVPN
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is an app that encrypts your internet connection and masks your IP address, allowing you to stream securely and bypass restrictions.

- Increase Privacy: A VPN protects your data on non-secure public Wi-Fi networks by creating an encrypted tunnel, safeguarding your personal information while you stream.
