Ricky: I don't know what's got into you, I really don't. You're a smart kid just like Liza. You used to be in all the top sets. What is going on? Just give yourself some choices mate.
Abbie Turner: Seb?

Ricky: Yeah, but it doesn't have to be like that does it? There's some good jobs out there.
Seb: Good jobs? What good jobs?
Ricky: Well there is if you just knuckle down. Give yourself some options. Otherwise you're just going to end up like...

Seb: Well yeah of course I do don't I? I want to be like you.

Ricky: I'm doing my best Seb.
Seb: Maybe your best isn't good enough, is it?

This is the "new realism" of the young Ken Lodge. When the "pure" neo-realism movement was fading in the tide of post-war reconstruction, Ken Lodge, as a latecomer, expressed a strong demand for realism in the past five decades, no less than "Theft of Bicycles". De Sica in The Man of Man or Visconti in The Waves of the Earth. As always, he pays attention to the life of the working people at the bottom, emphasizes the timeliness of the subject matter, and shows the living conditions of the British working class. In the United Kingdom, he is a meticulous observer, faithfully recording the real landscape below the horizon; in the film, he is a devout believer, stubbornly following the traditional creed of Neorealism, and guarding the precious heritage of the film.
