Narrative
Two teenage boys from very different London backgrounds take a trip up north together. As they begin to open up about their pasts, the boys discover they have much more in common than they first thought. My first review! I saw it last night and all I knew was that it was about two teenagers traveling up north in the UK. After the first 10 minutes I wasn’t sure how I felt about it, but I stuck with it and I’m very happy. The performances of both boys were very impressive. Some scenes were quite emotional and I found myself invested in the story. The road they travel north on is the A1, a great road that I think the film highlighted well. I will always choose it over the M1. Some shots in this movie are beautiful, someone has a good eye. It does a great job of showcasing the English countryside. It reminded me of being a teenager and the different types of people we meet. It may not be for everyone, but I really enjoyed it and think it’s worth a look.Thomas B.
