Loved the aesthetic of the film. It reminded me of 'Brighton Rock' and 'Great Expectations. The main character is a young boy, who has to flee his abuser. The film was shot on real film and has a beautiful luminosity and depth of colour during the childhood of the protagonist. It then becomes a much darker film. The film stock changes, I understand, from Fugi to Kodak and the diffence is both wonderful and striking. It enhances the different eras, as time passes and the character grows up, searching for his lost love. The 60's childhood is captured perfectly by the costumes and the sets. 1970s Southend on sea and the superb gang characters are both terrifying and hilarious. Jonathan Moore plays Sean Murphy brilliantly, as an icy yet incredibly amusing psychopath. Jenny Agutter is incredibly beautiful. Still waters run deep in her character, Sarah. The cast are terrific and the cinematography, stunningly beautiful in their juxtaposition between Cornwall and Essex, England.
