Actor Tim Roth's dictatorial debut is also an exquisitely acted masterwork about the dark secrets surrounding a middle-class British family, with Lara Belmont stealing the show as the abused daughter.

"The family that loves together stays together. Or, if taken too far, just completely crumbles together. A grey, sodden story of family disorder that's as bleak as the subject matter can be, and provides for some really good acting (particularly Lara Belmont), not to mention an excellent directorial debut by Tim Roth.
