| Stephen Frears was at the forefront of the British cinematic revival of the mid-1980s, and the delightfulIy transgressive My Beautiful Laundrette is his greatest triumph of the period. Working from a richly layered script by writer Hanif Kureishi (lntimacy), soon to be internationally renowned, Frears telIs an uncommon love story that takes pIace between a young South London Pakistani man (Gordon Warnecke), who decides to open an upscaIe laundromat to make his famiIy proud, and his childhood friend, a skinhead (DanieI Day-Lewis, in a breakthrough roIe), who volunteers to help make his dream a reality. This cuIture-clash comedy is also a subversive work of sociaI realism, which dares to address racism, homophobia, and sociopoIiticaI marginaIization in Margaret Thatcher's EngIand. |
