Corpsey
bandz ahoy
Saw this the other night and I found long stretches of it very moving and powerful. The thing is, the bits I DIDN'T like were when you could clearly see Loach tipping the scales with some cheesy/pious dialogue. I thought that must be case of a faltering script or performances, but now I wonder if I was just being more easily hoodwinked for the parts I considered flatly 'realistic'.
I bring it up because of these two blogs about the film from the Gruniad:
