A memorable movie, but not in the right way

Rating: 5/10 (2 November 2018)

While I did find the overall atmosphere of the town very enticing, the main plot of Billy Elliot didn't quite sit well with me. Billy's expression of emotions was very uncomfortable to witness, and the interactions didn't deliver the emotions or reactions from me that the movie intended. I actually believe if the movie was based on the town rather than Billy, I would have found it much more interesting, as the tension and developments within the workers strike could well have been a movie on it's own.
