hallam foe

“Jamie Bell is terrific”

Hallam Foe, a smart coming-of-age tale from David Mackenzie (the director of Young Adam).

Jamie Bell plays the hero, so cut up by his mother's suicide he runs off to Edinburgh to find a girl just like her.

Mackenzie takes pains to keep him this side of likeable, as he weaves an intriguing web of mystery, romance and farce.

Backed by Giles Nuttgens' atmospheric widescreen visuals, kooky animated titles and a too-cool-for-school indie soundtrack,

Hallam Foe is an impressive return to form for Mackenzie.
