This film is truly remarkable both in storyline and acting. Kelly MacDonald excels as under age prostitute Stella whilst James Bolam is creepily superb as her pimp. The story centres around Stella in London and her two roles as prostitute and outgoing young woman. There are also flashbacks of her childhood in Glasgow before she moved to London to become a prostitute. Sex scenes are not graphic but perhaps seem more disturbing due to this. This film is a truly thought provoking delight covering many sub plots including drugs. Well worth a look
The Late Alan Clarke's finest work. Ray Winstone is excellent as Carlin, while Phil daniels is brilliant as always. Mick Ford,Tony London and Martin Phillips are all convincing in their roles. As with all of Clarke's films it has plenty of social comment and realism. Watch it you'll find fewer compelling, thought provoking and moving films.
