Bonus Track (2023)
Directed by Julia Jackman this film stars Joe Anders, Samuel Small, Jack Davenport and Alison Sudol. A 16 year old boy doing poorly at school and with no friends is only interested in music.
As coming of age films go there is not really anything special here, in fact this one is a bit twee and predictable for my taste. There is definitely something which could have been interesting to explore in the relationship between the father and son but that is not really the core of the piece here. About the only thing I was left wondering about was why they cast an American as the mother.
2/5
