Excellent snapshot of London

London on the cusp of punk filmed around Ladbroke Grove is brought vividly to life. The film is no misery fest demonstrating that despite hurdles immigrants had a vibrant life. Great music. My only query is according to IMDb the actor playing Tony is nine years old. No way was he born in 1967.
