I have worked with people with learning disabilities for more than thirty five years. When I first started there were still institutions such as the one depicted in the film. Sadly the way Walter was treated wasn't so far from the truth either (the most staff were kind and compassionate. Ian Mc Kellen plays the part very well. A gripping and poignant film.

It's difficult to believe for a younger generation but once upon a time in Britain we only had three television channels: BBC One , BBC Two and ITV . BBC Two was a station people rarely watched since it confined itself to documentaries and current affairs and one year - 1979 - ITV went on strike for several months . Having a fourth television station was a major event in Britain . Well it was for those who could receive it because some of the country couldn't which as fate decreeded included the Island of Bute . It was a frustrating thing for me and my local peers having to read a television listing page in the newspaper wondering what television shows we'd be missing on this mythical channel and one thing I did notice was that C4 would broadcast a film almost every night . When we finally did get receive channel 4 in May 1985 the realisation was that we weren't missing too much and perhaps this was summed up by the " films " they showed which weren't actually films per se but overproduced teleplays shot on film WALTER was the very first " film " shown on Channel 4 in 1982 and it personifies what I'm talking about . It's very similar to what the BBC'S PLAY FOR TODAY was producing at the same time which a feature length kitchen sink drama with much social relevance with not much in the way of a feel good factor . Interestingly enough when PFT disappeared a couple of years later Channel 4 started investing in the British film industry and within a short period of time channel 4 films such as MY BEAUTIFUL LANDRETTE started getting the odd Oscar nomination then with the likes of THE CRYING GAME there'd be a sackful of nominations and awards and even then who'd have thought a Film4 production like SLUMDOG MILLIONIRE would dominate both the box office and the Oscars ? It says a lot when you make a film with a feel good factor This is the problem with WALTER , it's devoid of any sort of feelgood factor and centres around a young retarded man the eponymous Walter who destiny has decided must suffer a rotten life . Not only born with learning difficulties he's born in to that type of nihilistic Northern England that only seems to exists in this type of story . His father has just died , he works in a factory populated by bullies , his mother hates him and his only friends are the pigeons he keeps . Yes that's right , a gritty true life tale featuring Northerners is never complete without an indigneous protagonist keeping either birds or whippets. One can't help understanding that when it was broadcast it received a large number of complaints and one empathizes with the stereotypical portrayal of the Northern English Along with it being the first film shown on Channel 4 WALTER should be remembered as something of a breakthrough role for Ian Mckellan who had been an actor for many years before this and one who Joe Public would have a serious problem putting a name to the face . It's a power house performance and one wonders if WALTER had been a truly cinematic film how rewarded his performance would have been ? As it stood his next substantial role would be in Michael Mann's THE KEEP which flopped at the cinema and you're left scratching your head wondering what an actor has to do to get noticed by the public

Sir Ian Mckellen is without doubt one of the finest actors performing today. To truly appreciate the depth of his acting talents , I urge you to watch " Walter " ( aka Loving Walter ). Do not let the fact that this being a "made for television" film put you off . It brought Sir Ian's acting talents to the viewing masses in Britain and in doing so raised his profile immeasureably. It is by no means an easy film to watch. With a subject matter of mental illness and societies victorian ways of dealing with it , there is no feel good factor to be found here . It is the strength of Sir Ian's performance that will keep you glued to the screen . I am fortunate enough to have the original videotape of Walter that I recorded some years ago and the follow up film Loving Walter . I am pleased to say that the DVD of Loving Walter is due for release ( and about time too ) on the 2nd December 2003 . Buy it , rent it , watch it . You will not be disappointed .

3/9/18. I watched this for McKellen, and for this one reason it was worth watching. However, as a movie, it was very difficult to watch because it depicts how the institutionalized mentally ill are treated. While not necessarily neglected, as their physical needs are met, their treatment is somewhat mechanical, although Walter (McKellen's character) takes on the task of caring for a fellow housemate with much tenderness. Walter is a mildly retarded man who had the misfortune of outliving his parents at the age 21. With no one to care for him, and he cannot care for himself, he is institutionalized with those severely retarded. This film combined 2 TV movies into one (Walter and Walter & June). Walter survives institutional life and the movie resumes when he is 40. He meets up with another institutionalized patient, a woman with psychiatric problems. They try to make a go at life outside by escaping and being on their own. Walter realizes he cannot survive outside of the institution and returns. McKellen is a true artist. His depiction is just wonderful and compassionate in showing how Walter is capable of loving and caring as those who are not as mentally challenged as he is.
