The Bowler and the Bunnet(Film, 1967)

The Bowler and the Bunnet was a Scottish television documentary programme on STV, directed and presented by Sean Connery. It is the only film ever directed by Connery. The documentary, filmed in black and white, was a critical examination of the Fairfield Experiment, whereby Iain Maxwell Stewart introduced new working practices at the Fairfield shipyard in Glasgow. It was released onto DVD by the British Film Institute as part of their Tales from the Shipyard boxed-set in February 2011. The title comes from the tradition where bowler hats were worn by managers within the shipyards while bonnets (cloth caps) were worn by the workers. ()
