Accidentally, we pick the companion piece / antidote to Will's
GABAG, a view of teenage behaviour that is much more in line with our own experiences. Determinedly quirky and deadpan comedy is a delight, way overdue. John Gordon Sinclair is the dorky hero, with Dee Hepburn, Jake D'Arcy, Clare Grogan, Robert Buchanan, Billy Greenlees - a very natural cast. Dee's training moves with football coach turning into dance are one of many highlights.
Background stuff often very funny too. Is it in 4x3? It seems unlikely, though the image doesn't appear cropped. It seems it was probably shot open matte and cropped to 16:9 for international distribution.
Very sweet (unlike an American doughnut, which leads us to the next film...)
