Blue Jean: a sad story told by Georgia Oakley in this modest but hard-hitting drama, it follows a PE teacher and closeted lesbian who must contend with essentially the criminalization of who she is and who she fancies. The idea is all the more touching because the ideology that drives it is, somehow, pretty much again in vogue nowadays. Rosy McEwen plays the protagonist beautifully; she feels (and, in a way, she is) watched all the time, so she carries herself with constant tension on her shoulders. Kerrie Hayes plays her girlfriend nicely as well, in many ways the polar opposite of the protagonist, proud to be who she is but not one that is insensitive to pain. Lucy Halliday, a student much earlier in their same track, is convincing. Production designer Soraya Gilanni and costume designer Kirsty Halliday convincingly (and in a very low-key way) recreate the late 1980s with their work. Director of photography Victor Seguin’s intimate camera work fits well with the setting.
