Mister Roberts

Alexei Sayle

Above a small village in Spain an English costume designer sees a bright shining star lurch abruptly across the sky.On Christmas Day a strong silent man with blank eyes enters Bar Noche Azul.
Only a thirteen year old boy could have guessed that there was any connection between the two.
Wonderfully inventive darkly funny thoughtful and full of glorious one-liners Mister Roberts is both an original coming-of-age story and an unusual take on the corrupting influence of power.
