Sweet Sixteen (2002)

Given Martin Compston's rise to fame with Line Of Duty, I'm surprised this hasn't had a release yet. Great film from Ken Loach with some very good performances.

I don't know how well Carla's Song sold for Indicator but I'd love them to release this too.

I picked up the DVD of this one recently, I just noticed it was released on BD last year by Divisa Films in Spain.

Is this a bootleg? The label seems to be legitimate, I wonder what the quality (or lack there of) is like?

It's not bad, not a new transfer but still very watchable. Not sure if it's a bootleg, it doesn't have any of the DVD extras though. The Wind That Shakes The Barley also got a Spanish release recently. Hopefully My Name Is Joe gets one too at some point..

Divisa is a legit company and their releases are licensed from the rightsholders. A huge clue is the presence of the rightsholder's logo and copyright information on front and the back of their releases, something which is noticeably absent from the likes of Resen and Llamentol releases.
