Stephen Frears' devastating look at how the violent forces of poverty and religion rips apart a British family through the eyes of their young son during the Depression. Powerful writing and superb direction along with fine performances make the film a standout. The lead performance of Anthony Borrows as the title character is just outstanding among the pros such as Ian Hart and Anne Reid. Frears is one the few directors that consistently delivers great work regardless of the genre. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
