Curiosidades
Carlin was originally a Glaswegian, but was changed into a Cockney when Alan Clarke saw a then-unknown Ray Winstone walk in a unique way.

Erros de gravação
All borstal inmates were subject to the same mandatory short-back-and-sides haircut, yet a vast array of hairstyles are shown throughout the film, including afros.

Citações
Meakin: Up your fucking borstal!

Versões alternativas
Norwegian cinema version was cut in the rape scene and the suicide scene. Later video versions are uncut.

Truly disturbing

Be warned that you should go into this film with your guard up. By the time the final scene has faded quietly out, you will probably be in a state of shock.

The film details life in a Borstal institution and the violence and racial hatred that runs rampant through both the prisoners and their wardens. There is nothing cheery here at all and that is precisely the point. Director Alan Clarke deliberately films with a documentary style and it is this realism that makes the film so shattering. Scenes of sexual and racial abuse are placed in front of the camera and no raw nerve is spared the touch of the film.

It should be shown to youngsters as a reason not to turn to crime.
