Advantages: Dark, gritty & enthrawling Disadvantages: A bit slow at times
for on the British film scene. ThisIs England is his biggest film to date however he?s worked on a quite a few others such as the lesser known: A Room For Romeo Brass & Dead Man?s Shoes.
The main stars of the film are played by Thomas Turgoose who plays 12 year old Shaun & Stephen Graham who plays racist bigot Combo. Thomas Turgoose, who?s now 16 has appeared in British horror film Eden Lake & another Shane Meadow?s film Somers Town.
