This is England



Last day of English before winter break we watched a weird movie called "This is England". It is about a troubled 12 year old boy growing up in England. The story is set in 1983. Young Shaun comes across five skinheads on his way home, after he has been in a fight at school. These skinheads become Shauns new best friends even though they are some years older than him. Shauns dad was killed in the Falklands War and he is living with his mum. He dos not have many friends until he meets Woody and the rest of his gang. They're having a lot of fun, but when the older, overly racist Combo returns home after spending some time in prison, things changes. Now Shaun gets drawn into much more serious and uncomfortable territory.
