I've given it 8 out of 10 as I believe it has ended up pretty much what it set out to be. That is - a coming of age/right of passage/teenage angst film with a strong Wigan/Northern Soul theme running through it. It has a low-budget feel but don't think that's a bad thing as it suits the era. If there is nothing in here you can relate to - then you weren't inhabiting the same planet as me in the early 1970's. See it. MB
