“Every actor in the movie is perfectly suited to their character, and you canu0026#39;t day that about every movie you see.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eRupert is in love with a ray of sunshine in the human form of Cary Elwes, and Colin is screaming for the revolution to begin. The movie is about them, what living in England at the time would have been like, and what living in a boys school was like also.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe boys seem to accept Rupert because it is widely assumed that he will grow out of it. When he declares it as a way of life, his unhappiness begins. He is able to be friends with Colin Firth because they are both outcasts in their way (u0026quot;The Commie and the queeru0026quot; is how he describes them at one pointu0026quot;).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe movie is very enjoyable and it is worth a look. Youu0026#39;ve spent ninety minutes doing stupider things than watching this.”
