Very very good film and for anyone who grew up in a working class environment in the early 80's it holds a special appeal.

It raises the questions for the young lad and him coming to terms with loosing his father in the Falklands war

It also raises the problem faced by the skinhead movement which was never traditionally a racist culture, in fact one embracing black music such as reggae and Ska hence Milky, but nationalists from the National Front using the look etc for their own ends, the footage of the meeting they have in the remote pub where then NF official comes in his XJS to address the crowd could be today with the BNP

And then you get back to the whole relationship and struggle between the young lad and the racist skinhead

Especially at the end when he realises that its wrong and not what he wants, good triumphing over bad.
