For socially awkward East Ender Colin Pollock (Tim Roth) and his abrasive big brother Mark (Phil Daniels), life on the dole in Thatcher’s England meant the likelihood of escaping their struggling parents’ flat diminished by the day. Their frustrated hunt for purpose came to a head when their well-off aunt (Marion Bailey) offered work to one sibling, and one alone. Arresting, largely improvised early effort from Mike Leigh co-stars Gary Oldman, Alfred Molina, Pam Ferris, Tilly Vosburgh. 107 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English (SDH); featurettes.
