the video of this Blog they are Legal, they describe the methods of chastisement
in the Schools in special way of the UK, and to Home, it was the discipline of the past when the cane , strap reigned in all the Schools.
There is no anything perverse or of brutal, it was the reality of the past, nothing is invented, but the raw truth of the education and discipline it imparted in the Schools and to Home with the cane, strap , whips and paddle.

canings on the hands
boys that smoke to School, receive a whipping on the hands from the Headmaster. the canings is real, the boys have been paid for the part in the film, but the strokes of cane are real.
In the film 'A Kestrel for a Knave' from which this is taken, the last boy to be caned is not a smoker at all and was in fact sent by another teacher with a message. Such is the headmaster's zeal that this young boy gets caned along with the rest simply because he is in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Unjust punishments like this were a feature of life for many of us, of course.
And, actually, I think that they do not show the cane actually hitting any boy's hand - it is very carefully filmed so that none of the actors were actually hurt.
from a critique of press of the epoch, the boys of the film said that the whipping on the hands was real, therefore they heard the intense pain of the cane

Er, slight correction.
RispondiEliminaThe book is A Kestrel for a Knave and the film from which this clip comes is called 'KES'.
Glad we cleared that up!
