Looking for a film title...
English film, set in the North of England, about a bloke who comes out of prison to seek revenge on a group of people who bullied and killed his mentally ill brother.
The lead actor had a beard - I thought it was a Mike Leigh film, but can't find the reference
My google, search on "Film, beard, north, Revenge" has surprisingly come up with nothing, and it's driving me crackers

I went to see this during the festival last year it was great mr meadows did a big chat before hand and then a huge Q and A it was great shane seems like a really groovy guy, patient and interested in his work.
We also got to see some of the shorts he filmed with the lead actor in dead mans shoes, who has had no proper acting classes or anything.

I watched it on telly the other week - a preety inconcipsuous start, but i thought i'd stick wiht it, and i was blown away - especially by Paddy Considine's acting
The scene in the house -when he put the coke in the teapot - I thought was phenomenal.
it's certainly on my Santa list
Along with this...

I'm yet to watch naked, yeah I agree the coke scene was very very well done indeed, and the leads acting was awesome, somehow shane is able to take a simple story nothing spectacular and manage to emmerse you in the plot and characters completely, he has a rare talent.
