Saw the film Kidulthood (2006) last night - pretty intense stuff! Set in London, this tale of 'yoof culture' in the inner city deals with a group of teenagers whose lives revolve around sex, drugs, violence, knives, guns, bullying, suicide and alcohol. The film paints a pretty grim picture of teenage life in London and although you hope things aren't quite as bad as this in real life, you kind of know they are... The soundtrack is a who's who of urban British music including The Streets (when they were good), Skinnyman, Klashnekoff, Dizzee Rascal and Roots Manuva to name a few... I hear there is a follow-up called Adulthood so looking forward to seeing that...
