Synopsis
Twin Town (1997) is a pitch-black Welsh comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Kevin Allen and shot entirely in Swansea. The Lewis twins — Jeremy and Julian — terrorise the city from a cramped caravan. When their father breaks his back working on the roof of local kingpin Bryn Cartwright, the family wants compensation. Cartwright refuses. That is his mistake.
Real brothers Rhys Ifans and Llŷr Ifans play the twins, and the casting explains the film's feral energy better than any script note could. The two corrupt local cops — Grayo and Terry — are too busy running a drug deal with Cartwright to do anything useful. Often shelved alongside Trainspotting as a mid-nineties British lowlife classic, the comparison holds. Stream Twin Town online on iFILM.
