Trivia | The film is dedicated to the memory of Al Boughen, 1933-2010, the real-life park ranger who inspired the character of Al Thorpe, and who was mentor to director Dan Hartley when he was a teenager, in the same way that Al Thorpe is to Tom Proctor in the film. See more » |
Goofs | When Tom runs away from the fair, the shot has been reversed, as evidenced by the backward "NO EXIT" sign and vehicle license plate. See more » |
Quotes |
[Tom is working for Al, the National Park ranger. He doesn't want to be there and thinks it is a waste of time. Al shows him how to saw a length of wood for a new stile he is making]
Al Thorpe: You ever used a saw before, lad? Tom Proctor: [sullenly] Maybe. Al Thorpe: Aye. Come over here and I'll show you how. [Al rests his hand on the wood with his thumb sticking out. He rests the blade of the saw against the tip of his thumb] Al Thorpe: See how I use me thumb to guide it. Tom Proctor: [horrified] I could cut me thumb off! Al Thorpe: No you *won't*! Now listen! All you're doing is establishing the cut. Once you've got a groove, you move your thumb out of the way. And then that's when you start to saw properly. [sound of Al sawing] Al Thorpe: Right. You got that? [Tom looks away, bored] Al Thorpe: Come on, then. *You* do it. Tom Proctor: [mutters] Child bloody labour. Al Thorpe: [sternly] Listen, lad. Ten weeks, me and thee have got together. And I'll not have you standing about idle whilst *I* do all the work. You're here to help. You're *not* here for a holiday. Do you understand that? [reluctantly, Tom begins to saw] See more » |
