So Gervais and Merchant CAN write different characters to the range offered in The Office, Extras and more recently Lifes Too Short.
Coming of age drama set in 70's Britain about a group of friends desperate to escape their working class, poverty-stricken backgrounds and the small town they were born and raised in, Cemetery Junction.
I really enjoyed this. I will be buying the DVD.
I couldnt escape the buzz and the hype surrounding this. However one of my friends also says that this is the THEE worst film he has ever seen. I wanted to enjoy it as its directed by Edgar Wright and I did...I think. Truly bizarre. I followed it and understood it but found myself asking "why?" mainly. Would it make more sense if I had read the comics?
