One of Shane Meadows's warmer, gentler films, like his later Somers Town, which is also excellent.
My Movie Rating: 9 / 10A film of a typical boyish friendship put to the test when the dangerous stranger comes between them. It's one of those films where you are kept wondering what's going to happen and then it does in the most innocuous of circumstances during a day by the seaside. The friendship between the two boys is dealt with very effectively by the director even though Andrew and Ben apparently quarrelled a lot on set.
My Movie Rating: 7 / 10The film is confusing at times. I could not work out the family relations properly, but that didn't matter in the end. The boys gave a nice performance and their friendship gave me a good feeling.
