Purely Belter (2000)
Country: GB
Technical: DeLuxe 99m
Director: Mark Herman
Cast: Charlie Hardwick, Tim Healy, Roy Hudd, Chris Beattie, Greg McLane
Synopsis:
Two Newcastle lads, drop-outs and petty criminals both, focus all their efforts for a year on saving up enough money to buy season tickets for the United ground.
Review:
Winning working class comedy drama of the Northern school; episodic, it outstays its welcome but uses its unknowns well and sustains moments of empathy. (The important political point made is that the gamer of the masses is rapidly pricing itself beyond their reach.)
