Quadrophenia (15)
By day, Jimmy Cooper is a disaffected teenager trudging through the working week at a dead-end job in 1960s London. By night, he dons a sharp suit, pops pills and seeks thrills on his scooter alongside a gang of fellow Mods.
With the bank holiday offering the promise of escape, the Mods journey to Brighton for a violent confrontation with a rival gang of Rockers. But will a weekend in the teenage wasteland deliver Jimmy the freedom he craves??
