Review by anon on 11th January 2001

I have watched many films in my time: National and International, and this has to be one of the best. Although this film is barely unheard of it deserves so much more: it is a story of life and when there is no life. It begins with a group of youngesters (like those in Trainspotting) and they gradually develop, due to the efforts of one man- Darcy, who comes as a Godsend. I don\'t not think the emphasis is on the youths, but rather Darcy. You will have to watch the film to see if he really does do it for himself, or for the boys... watch, or rather buy and publicise this movie...it deserves great accreaditation from the world, but then, like the Darcy in the movie: will accreadidiation do it any good?
P.S. Was better than Trainspotting and Full Monty: simular, in many respects.
