Summary

Johnny is a charming and eloquent, but relentlessly vicious drifter. Rejecting anyone who might care for him, the volcanic Johnny hurls himself through a nocturnal odyssey around London, colliding with a succession of other desperate and dispossessed people, and scorching everyone in his path. With a virtuoso script and raw performances, Mike Leigh's picture of England's underbelly is an amalgam of black comedy and doomsday prophecy

Technique

live action
