I appreciate movies where I can sympathize with the characters. Foscadh is one of them.
The mix of decent camerawork with a well chosen underlaying soundcarpet helped me to get to know John, the main protagonist of the movie, and his beeing quiete well. There is a certain helplessness, his feelings of beeing lost or not fitting pared with naivety, and there is a pressure to take things in his hands while people around him seem to be too demanding, which created the basic for a good movie. It's layered in a simple yet touching story, filled with humanism, hope, attraction despair and loath.
If you are looking for a movie to get fast entertainement, this will not be your cup of tea. But if you dig movies by Loach, I guess you will have a decent watch.
