The Green Man (1990)
10/10
'Angry Young Man' gets an honest shake on film
26 August 2004
Kingsley Amis, a charter member of the English 'Angry Young Men' club of post World War II writers, wrote a marvelous book containing equal parts of horror and humour.

'The Green Man' is an adequite translation of Amis's literary masterpiece to the screen; alas, in this case, the television screen.

Albert Finney delivers a preformance to match the character Amis created to present the story of a centuries-old child molester who still inhabits the precincts of the home in which he lived.

The production is English, hence, superior. If this one doesn't stick with you...check your pulse.
