Review
It is the summer of '66, and England is about to be consumed by World Cup fever. For 12-year-old Bernie though, the biggest day of his life is looming, his Bar Mitzvah, the day he becomes a man. However, Bernie's family are increasingly distracted by the threat of losing their business and their wayward older son, and the scale of Bernie's Bar Mitzvah diminishes daily. Worst of all the Cup Final is scheduled to take place on the same day and when England make it through the qualifying rounds, Bernie's longed for Bar Mitzvah is looking like a serious non-starter. Sixty Six is a beautifully observed, crackingly acted British comedy drama; you just can't help but feel for the lad.
