Night People (2005)
Redemption movie for the early days of a new country
5 January 2008
I have just finished watching 'Night People'.
At first it felt dark and despairing but the vision of hope and positivity and the essential goodness of people emerged very convincingly and compellingly.
The direction, acting, cinematography the whole work of art was so moving - a Scottish film where people talked real talk with none of that ranting that often emerges as shorthand for how we Scots are supposed to communicate.
The stories and the characters were all engaging and the twists towards optimism from such an initially bleak context were laden with hope and redemption, and an unexpected degree of humour.
Kerr and Mead can be justly proud of this achievement.
