Based on incidents from his own childhood,
writer-director Shane Meadows‘s THIS IS ENGLAND is a stunning, brutal look
at 1983 Britain, during the conservative Margaret Thatcher regime and the
controversial Falklands War. Twelve-year-old Shaun (Thomas Turgoose) is a
tough little kid who is street-smart beyond his years despite being short
for his age. He falls in with a group of older boys, led by Woody (Joe
Gilgun), who hang out at a local coffee shop, like to commit minor acts of
anarchy, and adopt Shaun as one of their own--especially Smell (Rosamund
Hanson), an overly made-up teenager who dresses like Boy George and develops
a cute romantic interest in the complicated boy. But when skinhead Combo
(SNATCH‘s Stephen Graham) gets out of jail, he returns to the gang, eager
to take over the reins and lead them on a nationalistic battle to get rid of
the immigrants who are stealing their jobs and to defend England to the
death.

The Irish romance ONCE may be a musical, but
it is miles away from the traditional Hollywood idea of people bursting into
song. With its use of digital video and handheld cameras, ONCE matches its
spare visual style to its intimate mood. Driven more by music than by
dialogue, ONCE features a stirring soundtrack in this story of a street
busker and the girl he meets while singing.
