"Updated from Melville's 19th century Wall Street scrivener to a 1970's London bookkeeper ... A young accounting clerk rebels against his employer by responding to demands to do work by saying 'I prefer not to'. This is carried on ad absurdum until the office is in chaos ... His boss is unable to fire him or help him, and eventually has him placed into a mental hospital. Why the boss simply doesn't fire him straight off is the crux of the film"--Container
When the manager of a public records firm decides his staff of three could use some help, he hires Bartleby, the one and only candidate who applies for the job. But before long, the eccentric new employee creates an uproar by repeatedly defying his boss with the phrase "I'd prefer not to."
