I recently saw Kidulthood and that movie piqued my interest. If any UK heads or just anybody who knows about movies that deal with this specific topic (British Teen Life or just British Urban Life in general) any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Bullet Boy is a lot better.

You're right that it's not so much about teen life, but fuck it may as well qualify. One of the best movies ever in my opinion.

Watch Skins (not the U.S copy), but the original U.K version. It can be cheesy, but it is a good show.

lol @ snatch meets superbad.

Skins is a good shout (the first season anyway.

Awaydays is good if you want some teenage football hooligans. You could try Dubplate Drama too.

maybe a version of it. definitely not dubplate tho.

i'd also reccomend sugar rush, for a female-dominated option. only like 12 episodes were made.

just searched, andrew garfield was on this. SO LONG AGO. lol i was watching this as a 12 year old.

Couple of decent scottish teen life films. I doubt anyone here will actually understand what's being said in the trailers though.

Haha definitely not Gaelic.
In Neds they at least put on the slightly easier to understand "scottish actors voice". But in sweet sixteen they just go full out haha.
