Scarborough

Just happened to stumble on this absolute gem of a movie. Knew nothing about it so if you like something a little subdued but interesting and quite riveting, this is right up your street. Just wish I could find the song at the end credits.

Not bad storyline(s). However, why did they have 16 year old Beth act like an 8 year old brat? I get it, they want to portray her as being young but this is way overboard and farfetched. I have a very difficult time believing someone like Aiden would be in love with or even be attracted to such a child - and I don't mean teenager, I mean child.

As far as Liz, totally predictable but more entertaining. I would have liked to see this couple more.

I gave this movie a 4 star rating. One storyline could be a 7 (Liz) the other (Aiden) is a 2.

The acting by the "adults" is actually pretty good. The teens? Not so much.

It's uncomfortable at times, since illegal relationships are involved. I suggest watching alone given the subject matter. The story flows very well, and while you can guess the twist early on it's still worth sitting through. These relationships happen in real life, and this is one theory as to why.

I believe most people followed the rules in the society make us want to cross the line deep down and do things forbidden. It may be the reason makes audience enjoy this film. I personally didn't get much moved by the story except enjoy the scenery in Scarborough. That's it!

This movie I came for Jess Bardem. But it hooked me from the first siene. Out of season sea side, four leading characters, two or one story line, twisting time line. It's nice move for good fieldings and thoughts. We should score it up!!!
