i bet he could. he left the midlands for this one so maybe lost his muse

the violence of previous films seems to be gone

Its coming out this month (or next month) Forgot which, its just had a run at the Edinburgh film festival and got lots of praise

imdb says:

USA 15 July 2009

UK 22 August 2008

a year difference.

Yeah, I saw it just over a year ago. It's pretty darn good but there's horrible product placement for Eurostar in it (who I think were the main funders of the film). There's at least two scenes that I remember would need editing when shown on TV to avoid the wrath of Ofcom code 10.3/10.4

Just missed this. it played for a week, looks like it will be a rental. Enjoyed all of his previous films though. Shane's a good one

I used to live in Somerstown. True story.

good story! perhaps they'll turn it into a movie.

I loved dead man's shoes so I'll definitely check this one out

this is england was pretty good as well, made me find out about Ludovico Einaudi who;s made some great music

sounds more like a great documentary. maybe get herzog on board or adam curtis

this is england was somewhat better imo

sorry but it sucks so much. huge disappointment.

surprised I never heard of this. I thought that kid was brilliant in This Is England
