Days of the Bagnold Summer
AroView: Priceless coming-of-age comedy-drama starring newcomer Earl Cave (son of Nick Cave) as a teenage heavy metal fan struggling to get along with his earnest yet well-meaning mother in the UK suburbs.
Directed with droll detatchment by Simon Bird (best known for playing Will in THE INBETWEENERS), and based on the 2012 graphic novel of the same name by Joff Winterhart, with original songs by Belle and Sebastian.
“Interlocking vignettes swing from laugh-out-loud comedy to piercing melancholia, but at the centre of it all there is a genuine sense of rebirth and renewal – no mean feat for a small movie with a big heart and a surprisingly wide-ranging vision.” ~Mark Kermode, THE OBSERVER
