The Guard


Click here to read the review!

He’s a lover of mothers and whores alike, and spends equal time in the company of both. He’s a man who, when he goes off-duty for the night, kicks back with a beer and flips on the telly not for the football or a little light viewing, but instead to watch Jerzy Skolimowski’s cryptic, terrifying psychodrama, ‘The Shout’. He’s warmhearted; he’s a prick.
