The Angels' Share (2012) - Official Trailer [HD]

Ken Loach is back with "The Angels' Share" - a bitter sweet comedy that follows protagonist Robbie as he sneaks into the maternity hospital to visit his young girlfriend Leonie and hold his newborn son Luke for the first time. Overwhelmed by the moment, he swears that Luke will not have the same tragic life he has had. Escaping a prison sentence by the skin of his teeth, he's given one last chance......While serving a community service order, he meets Rhino, Albert and Mo who, like him, find it impossible to find work because of their criminal records. Little did Robbie imagine how turning to drink might change their lives - not cheap fortified wine, but the best malt whiskies in the world. Will it be 'slopping out' for the next twenty years, or a new future with 'Uisge Beatha' the 'Water of Life?' Only the angels know........

Starring: Roger Allam, Daniel Portman, John Henshaw, Siobhan Reilly

[cannonballkid]

This was a great film

[TheMattpayne2010]

Some speak gaelic tho:) but the majority speak english

[TheMattpayne2010]

There scottish people lmao they speak english

Having seen the film, I have to say that whatever language they are speaking, it's not any version of English. In the first half-hour, I understood "hello", "cunt", and "fuck". Literally, that's it.

I've seen and enjoyed English-language films from all around the world, with all manner of accents. But this is not one.

Subtitles are a must.

this was a great film! a bit slow to start i thought, but i'm so glad i stuck with it, really feelgood.

I'll go see this film because I came to know and love Loach's humor and Honesty at The Charles Theater in Baltimore in the 80's. This slice of life will be both real and beautiful, like life itself!
