The nostalgia of idealism is the worst kind of idealism - and the
worst kind of nostalgia! Mr. Puck Huntley, however, would beg to
differ. Recently suspended from his post as a Media Studies teacher
and on the fortieth anniversary of the events of May 1968, he
decides to take matters (and the law) into his own hands. For Mr.
Puck Huntley is not your average Media Studies teacher. At 57, he
is the product of a very different generation and nowadays finds
himself permanently out of step with both his pupils and his head
teacher. Notoriously unorthodox in his teaching methods he now
brings that same unorthodoxy into play as he struggles to make his
voice heard. A Difficult Age is a stylish, original, funny and
often moving story of a man struggling to hold on to the ideals of
his generation in vastly different times. Like Puck, those that
came of age in 60s were right about one thing - the times, they did
change. Sadly for some, they just kept on changing...
