A film I've always meant to waatch, but only just got around to seeing it.

It's the 70's and gritty brutal life inside a English Borstal for boys urges it's prisioners to compete for survival of the fittest. A harsh reality reflecting the violence, rape, racial segregation etc etc and was no doubt controversial but very honest for it's time.

This had to be the role that gave Ray Winstone his big break and made him into a British (at least) household name.
