The Selfish Giant
I loved this movie, it was gritty in that way that only British drama seems to be able to be.
Inspired by the Oscar Wilde story of the same name and set in in an impoverished area of Bradford, northern England.
Swifty is the friend that we all had as kids growing up and Arbor is the boy we all hope we don't have; hyperactive, street wise and delinquent.
This is a story of struggle, friendship, anger and love.
On now at Rialto Newmarket and the Paramount in Wellington.
