Synopsis
Three teenage brothers, gang-member Bobby, troubled mama's boy Charlie and self-assured prankster Lex, reside in a downtrodden section of Glasgow, Scotland, circa 1968. But while Bobby and Charlie are beginning to experience the power of raging hormones, the story focuses on Lex, who begins a downward spiral after he accidentally shoots the leader of Bobby's gang. Lex's cockiness and immaturity unfortunately prevent him from understanding the effect his subsequent crimes will have on both himself, and on those around him. Brutally candid.

Customer Reviews

Gritty and realistic look at Glasgow in the 60's
A fantastic insite into the lives of three completely different brothers, being raised by their mother. One is young, one artistic and the other disturbed. The film shows how they become involved in the gangland scene of Glasgow's southside, the different characters they comes across and the effect this has on all of their lives. An unusually realistic look at Glasgow of that era.
Wonderfully acted, scripted and directed. A real gem.

Ghetto life in Glasgow in the late 60's , early 70's.
A truely brilliant piece of work...very enjoyable.

An excellent video
Oh man what a legend of a movie!! It has lots of morals and I would defintly reccommend it to anyone and everyone also I think its one of these movies that if you watch at the age of 40 you wish you had watched it much earlier way back when you were about 12 because it taught you so many lessons which are now not relevant or unnesscary so defintly buy it off Amazon for sure!!! But if I had to pick a time to watch it watch when you feel fine but people are questioning you like I feel great and I am having lots of fun on a daily basis but still these people approach me lol!! And if you choose not to watch it there better be a good reason like yo were going to a party and not just going to watch a terrible film such as Kung Fu Hustle
