Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Glaswegian convict Jimmy Boyle pedals a stationary bicycle opposite his prison mural of a disappearing horizon; Sex Pistols designer Jamie Reid offers hints on rip-off art; James Scott's anthology of interviews salutes the practitioners of surrealism (rather than those who mummify it) in an entertainingly provocative film.
