Privileged is a 1982 film, the first theatrical release from the Oxford Film Foundation and was Hugh Grant's screen debut playing Lord Adrian. The film is about a group of Oxford student partygoers with elements of a 'whodunnit', it was directed by Michael Hoffman with John Schlesinger, produced by Rick Stevenson and Mark Bentley with a classical score by Rachel Portman and dance tracks by Oxford student band "Kudos Points" whose members included Charlie Mole who went on to compose film scores in his own right from 1990. Privileged was also the first major screen debut for Imogen Stubbs, Mark Williams and James Wilby.

The screenplay includes a play within a play since several of the characters are vying for a role in a student production of The Duchess of Malfi.
