The Road

The Road is a 2009 post-apocalyptic drama film directed by John Hillcoat and written by Joe Penhall.
I loved this film for its amazing cinematography. The colours used are bleak yet really help portray this deathlike world. A very interesting film exploring the lengths humans go to for their own survival.

The Boys are Back

I have come to the conclusion that every good film I watch this year (which is bound to be a lot, seen as i'm spending a year at film school) will be posted on my blog.

The first film I am going to review is a little number that I watched last night, The Boys are Back.
Set in Australia, the story follows a recently widowed Englishman through the struggles of looking after his too sons.
I found it to be a deep and (slow) moving film, but yet easily watched. There are moments where I very much wanted to cry and moments in which I couldn't help but laugh.
I thoroughly enjoyed this film, great cinematography and a heartwarming story
