Just watched a film for free from HERE that is called "This is England."


I really enjoyed it as it's a film that brings up a lot of emotions- a classic british film if you ask me. It made me laugh, made me feel angry (at the racisim) and made me reminise (sp?) about the 80's.


Its about a 12 year old in 1983 and he lost his dad in the falklands. He is getting bullied at school and wants him and his mum to move away. He ends up making friends with older skinheads who are actually a bit fun and mad. Then one of the older guys gets out of jail and it turns out he is a racist and split the "gang" up in two as there is a black boy in the gang. The young boy is persuaded to go with the racist group as he see's the new guy as a bit of a father figure and it leads on from there.

 


Overall, a good watch IMO.
