Under water







Recently I watched a lovely film entitled 'Submarine'. Directed by Richard Ayoade and taken from the novel written by Joe Dunthorne, Submarine is a British comedy that get's inside the mind of a teenage boy who has two objectives in his life: To lose his virginity, and extinguish the flame between his mother and an ex-lover who has resurfaced in her life. Set in the welsh valleys the cast includes, Paddy Considine, Craig Roberts and Yasmin Paige with the soundtrack written by Artic Monkeys front man, Alex Turner - so as you can imagine the songs are equally as great. It's the kind of film I love, a comedy but not so blatantly funny, touching and heart felt, a feel good film that you can perhaps relate too (especially the teenage angst!) - and a little added bonus, these pretty illustrative postcards of each character that came within the dvd case. 


I would recommend this film if you have not already seen it, you can watch the trailer here. (or if you know me, you can borrow it of course!)
