This Is England ***
Shane Meadows, 2007
UK
@ IFC Center
I love the northern accents, and the clothes and music were both quite an experience. The ending is somewhat wrenching, if not unexpected. The kid, Thomas Turgoose, was extremely endearing, but not in a cloying fashion. From IMDb's trivia: "Thomas Turgoose had never acted before, had been banned from his school play for behaving badly and even demanded £5 to turn up for the film's auditions."
