Prick Up Your Ears/Made In Britain/Meantime

Pick Up Your Ears:

Prick Up Your Ears is a celebration of outrageous playwright Joe Orton and his love affair with Kenneth Halliwell which concluded with their violent and premature deaths. Orton was one of the 1960s golden boys, from working class Leicester lad to national celebrity, from sexual innocent to grinning satyr, from penniless student to icon of Swinging London.

Made In Britain:

From a fact-based screenplay by David Leland (Wish You Were Here) and directed by master film-maker Alan Clarke (Rita, Sue And Bob Too).

Trevor is a teenage skinhead. Caught smashing the windows of a Pakistani owned shop, he is sent to an assessment centre by social worker Harry where it is discovered he is slightly articulate and intelligent. But when he escapes, steals cars and goes berserk, can Harry still save him?

Meantime:

Writer-director Mike Leigh (Secrets and Lies, Abigail's Party) assembled the cream of emerging British acting talent for Meantime- a typically sharp and quirky portrait of family relationships. Meantime centres on an East End family, the Pollacks- Mavis, Frank and their sons Mark and Colin- and their experience of unemployment, poverty and life in early 1980's Britain. When Colin comes under the influence of Skinhead Coxy, family tensions erupt into conflict.
