Hi,I’ve not seen a film but that sounds very much like a book I read at school in the 80’s called ‘The Nature of the Beast’. Just looked it up and the author was someone called Janni Howker. Maybe connected?

As said above 'Nature of the beast'.
Remember it from when i was a kid, good film when you're 10 but not sure it will have stood the test of time tho.

that's the one thank you t20
A thought provoking and well made movie but definitely not a cheerful one. The ending is very bleak. The beast is a metaphor for unemployment.

From what I can see, the lad was lucky to escape with his life! There is no way you can go up against an adult Leopard with a BSA Cadet, Simply not enough gun. Now if he had got a BSA Cadet Major... well that would have been a whole different story entirely
