Bad Day on the Block (1997)
A decorated firefighter has his wife and son leave him because of his violent tendencies, including playing a game of Russian Roulette with his wife. Only trouble is he believes that the loving neighbor couple and their two children are to blame for them leaving by filling his wife's head with nonsense. He then sets out to discipline the family for their failings. But when the couple reports him to the police, the police will not believe the couple because of the fireman's status in the community. Things escalate until he kills a repairman, then the police and finally launches a totally terroristic attack on the family including again playing Russian Roulette with them.
Delhi-6 attempts to exposes the dual face of a person. We all live in today's world pointing a finger at the other person for all that's going wrong around us. Looking for the devil who can be blamed. In reality the devil resides within us. The story is told dipping the pen in the ink of "chaos" the color of which is black. It's a story of a young American boy "ROSHAN" of Indian origin, who comes to India for the first time, to drop his ailing grandmother. She wants to die in her own soil, and so prepares for her own death. In America having lead a very western lifestyle Roshan wasn't aware of the sites and smells, the food and culture, the religion and beliefs, that an Indian society is filled with. After coming to India he interacts with his grandmother's neighborhood and seamlessly dissolves in as if one of them. Little does he know that the endearing people including his grandmother have another face that feeds the devil within...
This is the hard and shocking story of life in a British Borstal for young offenders. Luckily the regime has changed since this film was made. The brutal regime made no attempt to reform or improve the inmates and actively encouraged a power struggle between the 'tough' new inmate and the 'old hands'. The film was originally made as a BBC play but it was banned before ever being shown. So 'Alan Clarke' and 'Roy Minton' got it re-made as a film. This is a tough and brutal film and should not be viewed lightly.
