| Black, funny in parts film from 1986 by British director Alan Clarke about two teenage girls on a run-down Bradford council estate who babysit for sleazeball yuppie Bob and his wife Michelle. Bob has sex with them in turn in his car on the way home (hilarious dialogue: "Are we 'aving a jump then, Bob?") until his neurotic wife finds out, and Rita gets pregnant. The characterisation plays for laughs(e.g. the pissed-up dad who says nothing but "Fook off"), but is a bit clichéd, and you get the feeling the director doesn't have much sympathy with the girls' shitty lives. |
