Middling, dreary drama which maintains enough interest largely thanks to fine performances, and Loach's obvious familiarity with the mileu, but suffers because its leading characters are fairly bland, and White's 'heroine' is insufferable at times (the condescending final monologue is almost too much to bear).

Loach's first theatrical film. Overshadowed by its followup Kes I suppose, but this is really good stuff already.
