A middle-aged, suicidal postman with a passion for traditional rock and roll and Manchester United, when forced to deal with both the feelings of guilt he has about his treatment of his first wife and the problems of his stepson who has become dangerously involved with a local gangster, begins to take the advice of an imaginary friend, a certain Eric Cantona, in Loach’s gently funny and surprisingly moving film, an example of the sort of sentimental socialist propaganda that they just don’t make any more (but perhaps should).
