Review of Made in Britain (1983) by William W — 15 Jul 2014

Interesting little movie. It stars Tim Roth as Trevor who is a teenage skinhead sent to an assessment center after putting a brick through a minority store-owner's window. It is a short movie and kind of just shows a quick snapshot of a troubled yet intelligent youth's life. Tim Roth is amazing. His character Trevor comes off extremely condescending and obnoxious.

I don't think the movie is really trying to make you root for him or anything. It is really just trying to show that people like this exist. It is sort of showing a reflection of the worst of society. I think it is also showing the failures of society through governments and misunderstood social issues.
