This is England - S08 E63
It’s the penultimate episode in Sarah’s Coming of Age season of movies and as we inch closer to the finish line, Sarah thought it was high time for a British drama. This week we’re talking Shane Meadows This is England (2006.)
We get into the context of the film, the cultural happenings of the 70’s and 80’s in the UK which caused the divides depicted in the film. We talk about the cast including Stephen Graham, Thomas Turgoose, Joe Gilgun and Vicky McClure and their insane performances. And we talk a little about Shane Meadows and how he gets these great performances from the cast.
