This is England

Post by Gav »

Good film. I think it would resonate with a lot of you here, Dylan and Makena spring to mind. Some who aren't familiar with England may struggle to 'get it' but it's worth a watch.
The film revolves around a 12 year old kid who gets in with a bunch of skinheads around the time of the Falklands war. It took me personally on a major trip down memory lane since I was about his age at the time.

Any guy who makes a film with Roland Rat in it is alright in my books.
