4 stars. A good film with great acting, nice scenery and good suspense. The plot is believable, excepting that it doesn't ring true with current stricter standards of safeguarding children in a school environment. The main character's innocence is implied, but you are left wondering just a little.
This 1980s film seems really dated and not in a good way. Terrible roles for the female characters. Terrible trousers for the men. Nice music and scenery. The sort of plot that Ealing Studios would have handled so much better in its day.
I found this film a little disappointing considering the great reviews it has received. It just didn't really cover any new ground for me. The subject matter has been well-explored by numerous high quality British films and TV series already. An admirable performance by Thomas Doret though.
