If the workers take a notion,
They can stop all speeding trains;
Every ship upon the ocean
They can tie with mighty chains.
Every wheel in the creation,
Every mine and every mill ,
Fleets and armies of the nation,
Will at their command stand still.

Ken Loach & Paul Laverty : Telling A Tale of Glasgow Grit & Working Class Fortitude

Went down to the canal yesterday to see yet another brilliant Scottish film, this new one, "Angels Share" is directed by Ken Loach, the screenplay written by Paul Laverty, whom you probably remember wrote the screenplays of "Route Irish", "Bread and Roses", "Tambien la lluvia (Even The Rain", and "The Wind That Shakes the Barley"....

 

 According to wikipedia; "'Angels Share' is a term for the portion (share) of a wine or distilled spirit's volume that is lost to evaporation during aging in oak barrels. In low humidity conditions, the loss to evaporation may be primarily water."

  This Whiskey-inspired caper is about the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of some working class kids from "the wrong side of the tracks" in Glasgow, neighborhoods often looked down upon by the more affluent residents of Glasgow ---- where alcohol-fuelled violence is as common as the bleak poverty witnessed by the locals. This time around, writer, Paul Laverty suprises us by telling a tale that is apolitical, but one that is also very much class-conscious, showing how Proles can prevail when they stick together.

Fucking brilliant film, to say the least :()
