Anachronisms: On the radio it mentions the football score "Stirling Albion 20, Selkirk 0". This game was played in 1984, and not in the early 70's when the film was set. moreSoundtrack:

I recently saw this movie & found it quite powerful. The acting was very good, especially the young boy playing the lead. Everything was very realistic, probably more than I would have wanted to see. I guess foreign art films show a lot more skin & shocking scenes than do American movies. Regardless, I found the movie very interesting & did enjoy it to a degree. But I do think I would have trouble recommending it to some of my friends.
