Just back from watching this film at the Glasgow Film Festival, and still seething at losing 1hr 50mins to it. So generic as you'd imagine that it had come to the director kit-built, it's assembly of characters go through the paces of yer bog standard 'coming of age' drama in a tick-box way that makes your heart sink. To be honest, I could rattle on about its many problems - not least the fact all the cast have hair cuts and vocal styles that seem to be more 2009 than 1976; that the school production appeared to have an unlimited budget, or that they seemed to have Dexy's Midnight Runners' brass section on board. Above all, though, it's unforgivably boring.
