As is often the case when good actors take a turn at the writing/directorial duties, we have a film filled to the brim with fantastic performances. Paddy Considine has made a great character film that can at times be equally unnerving and heartbreaking. It's a grim world he paints.

Olivia Colman's performance will shatter you. Peter Mullan manages to be both threatening and pathetic. And Eddie Marsan plays one very creepy guy.

This can be a tough watch. It's a pretty straightforward drama, well constructed and has moments of violence punctuating this depressing veil of sorrow. Grim stuff. But there is some light to be found and I think it is a rewarding experience for those willing to brave this dingy world.
