Who Are The Titular "Scum" Of This Film?
The more I watch this film (it is a horribly brutal film but compelling viewing) the more I start to wonder just who the "scum" actually are. Are they the borstal inmates... or are the wardens who are, for the most part, just as vile as the inmates themselves? I believe the film is made in such a way as to make the viewer ask themselves this very question, so what conclusions did you reach?
