I do agree . When I watched the second half I too found it very upsetting and not at all as I expected from the blurb in The Times advertising it. The gory violence was horrendous and I had to look away.

Greenfinch: Lesley Manville is a great actress but in my opinion Let Him Go is the most upsetting film I have ever seen. If you enjoy watching a childs life be destroyed (even fictional) then crack on.
I endured it because we were staying with friends and we all agreed to watch a film. My husband was so upset he got up and went to bed part way through, and I wish I had as well. It was only politeness that kept me in the same room.

I watched it she was brilliant in it every character she plays she does to perfection. She most currently is in Citadel and she is another strong character in that too.

I much admire Lesley Manville having seen her in Mum,Mrs.Harris and other things. She is so versatile and this was confirmed by her appearance in Let Him Go, a neo-western set in Montana and Dakota where she plays the matriarch of a hill billy community.It was on Film 4 last night. I don’t know how big a part she has as I have only seen the first half and she has only just come into it.
