Blood Brothers

Originally uploaded by Andyrob

Willy Russel’s “Blood Brothers” is set in 1960’s Liverpool. Twin boys are born to a loving mother who can’t afford to look after both children. Her wealthy, childless boss, persuades poor Mrs Johnston to give up one of her boys in exchange for money. The boss offers one twin a home as her own child and better life. They both vow to never tell anyone what they’ve done.

Of course the two boys, Mickey and Eddie, meet again in when they are older. They become friends but only time will tell if their friendship survives and if their mothers ever tell them the truth about their relationship.
