I took a chance on this even though the case told me absolutely nothing about the movie, except for the fact that a lot of people liked it. And I liked it too, all those critics weren't wrong! It's a coming of age gay-boy story set in a suburb of London and even includes a side helping of Mama Cass.
Cost: free from library
Where watched: at home.

What led you to pick it up? The cover photo is a little plain. How nice to enjoy a totally random movie.
ReplyDeleteOne of the nice things about having oodles of time is that I'm willing to take chances on movies. The cover of the movie I got was even less clear than this one, but it all worked out this time. No so much for the next movie review I will publish.
ReplyDeleteI just ordered it from the library! For a second, I thought it was a VHS tape and I thought, how serendipitous, I still have the VCR I borrowed from my boss to watch "Cavalcade." Alas, I misread and it's a DVD. Thanks for the recommend!
