Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
John Moulder-Brown made this at 14, then starred in Deep End four years later—quite the teenage trajectory from wholesome scamp to unhinged pool boy.
Part of the Children's Film Foundation's output, this was literally made to keep British kids occupied on Saturday mornings so parents could recover from Friday night.
