Her career on screen started firstly in side-parts and uncredited roles in films such as “G.I. Blues” (1960). The same year she appeared in “The Happy Thieves” in a support role, and continued in films of Swedish production, such as “Kort ar sommaren”(1962) and “Det ar hos mig han har varit”(1963).

By 1968 she had become a noted actress, and landed a lead role in Friedkin’s musical “The Night They Raided Minsky’s”, which brought her many acknowledgements and critical acclaim. Britt then starred in a series of Italian films, including “Machine Gun McCain” (1969), “The Conspirators” (1969) and “The Cannibals” (1970), before in 1971 being cast as the leading lady next to Michael Caine in “Get Carter”, and this role brought her the recognition of a sex symbol and a blonde bombshell.
