Brutal Prison Drama
The unsociable and brutal nineteen year old Eric Love (Jack O’Connell) is transferred from an young offender institution to an adult prison because of his violence. On the arrival, the voluntary therapist Oliver Baumer (Rupert Friend) invites Eric to participate in his group of therapy. However Eric meets his missing father Neville Love (Ben Mendelsohn) that is the henchman of the prison leader Dennis Spencer (Peter Ferdinando). Neville tries to control Eric and affects his participation in the therapy. Meanwhile the Deputy Governor Hayes (Sam Spruell) does not believe in Baumer’s treatment and gives one chance only to Eric to improve his behavior.

The title “Starred Up”, for people not native in English like me, describes the early transfer of a criminal from a young offender institution to an adult prison. The story is written by Jonathan Asser and is based on his experiences working as voluntary therapist at the largest adult prison in the UK in South West London in England. The plot follows the teenager Eric Love and is cruel and realistic, and may be consider a sociological study. The direction and performances are impressive, giving the sensation of a documentary and with no corny redemption. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): “Encarcerados” (“Imprisoned”)

Hard-hitting…and then some!
STARRED UP is another modern-day prison flick, this time a British one. Before everybody starts groaning and thinking “what, again?!”, let me reassure you that this one’s not sugar-coated at all. There’s no sentiment here, just brutality throughout, and yet it becomes an immersive and thought-provoking experience. Even with all the violence and bad language and animalistic behaviour, there is still light at the end of the tunnel.

The film features Jack O’Connell (’71) in a star-making performance as a disturbed young man who has just been transferred (aka starred up) to men’s prison from juvenile. To complicate things further, his own father is an inmate, and the two have a volatile relationship. I’ve seen the Australian actor Ben Mendelsohn before in a few Hollywood flicks and didn’t think much of him, but he’s a perfect fit for the part here.

A lot of the usual prison clichés are played out here, but they happen in a matter-of-fact and dare I say it grimly realistic way. The violence is brutal but not overdone, and it does serve a purpose rather than being gratuitous. And the realism is top-notch, reminding me of the BRONSON film at times. Despite all this writer Jonathan Asser manages to tell a believable storyline with an identifiable beginning, middle, and end. It’s a good little film, although not for all tastes given the subject matter.
