Boardering


Like Crazy (2011)

Directed by Drake Doremus this film stars Anton Yelchin, Felicity Jones and Jennifer Lawrence. A British girl falls in love with an American boy while studying in America, international travel law gets in the way of their relationship.

While the plot of this film is not that revolutionary or different from other genre films there are a couple of really interesting elements to the production of the film, specifically the use of a improvised dialogue. Hands down the best thing about the film is Felicity Jones's performance which has a touch of immaturity about it that adds to the realism of her performance and is not often seen in a genre of idealised characters. Despite the interesting elements in the execution of this film it does struggle to above being more than a curiosity of execution.

3/5
