Billy Elliot

The movie Billy Elliot was in my opinion a superb movie. It was, however, made quite some time ago, making it somewhat less appealing to me. Nevertheless, I thought portrayed the situation of a troubled young boy and his family in a proper way. One truly must admire his courage to step up to his family, and doing what he really wants. Billy has lost his mother, and this is a key factor in the plot of this movie. Ballét being a rather feminin activity, Billy is facing a big challenge fitting into the environment around him, dominated by maskulin cole miners. All this combined makes what Billy does, quite the rebellion, and thusly a more exciting film.
