A painfully bitter slice of British realism, written and directed by actor Paddy Considine.

With amazing performances from the cast and a very human story, Tyrannosaur is a powerful and affecting drama that demands to be seen, also marking the directorial debut of Paddy Considine, who turns out to a director worth keeping an eye on.
