hope and glory (1987) - john boorman








Hope and Glory shows a young boy (Bill Rowan, played by Sebastian Rice-Edwards) growing up at the start of the Second World War, and looking for adventures at the same time as the bombs start to fall. Nothing special about it really, (apart from some good backdrops). l would have stopped watching it if l had other pressing engagements, but luckily for me, due to being off work, l had loads of time on my hands (but not any longer, as l am back in today - DAAAAMMNNNNN!!!!!!!!!). A whimsical comedy/drama (Urghh!), which also explains how to bowl a googly (not interested).
