Let Him Have It (1991)
Very good, thought-provoking movie

I can't say with honesty that I 'enjoyed' this film exactly, because it's not a 'bundle of laughs', but it did blow me away and really set my mind wandering. It's a difficult subject matter and would be easy to over-play, but it's handled very well and is well worth watching. If anyone is in favour of the 'death-penalty for pointless or inexcusable acts of murder' , this films is for you.
Christopher Eccleston is wonderful and raw in it and gives a very vulnerable and yet gritty performance without camping it up at all. Also the lady who plays his Mum is wonderful (sorry, can't remember the actresses name).
