I could read the sky
Miserable movie about an emigrant who looks back over his wasted life working on building sites in England. Similar to Kings but more experimental and cinematic. Sad that there are probably thousands of older Irish living in Britain similar to the man in this movie. Too arty for a mainstream audience this one is worth a look.
