Description: |
An intense 1960s drama which centres on Colin Smith (Tom Courtenay), a cynical working class youth, who finds himself in Borstal for robbing a bakery. The man in charge of the reform school believes exercise and physical challenge can destroy a rebellious streak; Smith is a natural runner, so he trains for the big race against the local public school. |
