Schoolboy Cinema : Another Country

Another Country poses the following question: did the English public school system, with its' cruel little hierarchies and fledgling young-boy-networks, turn Guy Burgess against Western capitalist heterosexual civilisation? Guy Bennett ( Rupert Everett) and budding Marxist Tommy Judd ( Colin
Firth) despise their school. Judd sees the school as a training academy for the bourgeois status quo. Bennett regards it as the enemy of homoerotic feeling and love.


They're both right.
