Directed by Claude Whatham
A grounded, bleak music film.
Britain, 1958. Restless at school and bored with his life, Jim leaves home to take a series of low-level jobs at a seaside amusement park, where he discovers a world of cheap sex and petty crime. But when that world comes to a shockingly brutal end, Jim returns home. As the local music scene explodes, Jim must decide between a life of adult responsibility or a new phenomenon called rock & roll.

Men are trash the movie...
I make my debut on m'colleague Graham Williamson's podcast Pop Screen today talking about this very film and erm Ringo Starr's arse. Tune in here or watch on YouTube. And you can read my previous review here.
It follows a restless young man in late 1950s Britain who leaves home for odd jobs and petty crime before finding a path in the emerging rock and roll movement.
It was directed by Claude Whatham in 1973 as a prominent entry in British social realist cinema.
Rosemary Leach received a BAFTA nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in the film.
