Beneath the Skin (2015)
Unjustified harsh reviews
OK some of the reviews for this are unjustifiably harsh. Yes, the writing is a lil' cringe in places, the acting can be a bit wooden in parts and the British actors trying to do Canadian accents could've been left out... but over all it was a lovely story. Especially since the writer was just 20ish when this was made! I think for a film made on what was most likely a shoe-string budget, by a very young writing/directing team this was a fantastic effort! I believe with a bit more time and experience, they'll make some wonderful lgbt films in the future (with more HFN endings please.) I was actually considerably impressed with the production value knowing that the budget would've been microscopic.
Also did anyone else get an Ed Sheeran vibe from the main actor/writer?
Before the Fall (2016)
Fantastic
This was wonderful. The acting was great, the scenery was superb, the story was fab. A nice slow-burn love story, with real character development throughout. A real gem with a HEA.
I think the casting choices were absolutely spot on, you could get lost in Lee's deep tortured eyes for days!
