About this work

Description

This film shows a group of friends meeting in a pub for a game of pool. The heavy drinker, who arrived long before the others, is more concerned with teaching the youngsters to 'drink like a man' than playing. His attitude is condemned by other older members of the group, who drink in moderation. "Drink doesn't make a man of you, stand on your own two feet".
