...but I'm going to give it a go anyway! This film is, without a doubt, the one to watch! It is clever, funny, emotional, real and brings together an amazingly talented and star studded cast! I don't think you could ask for more in a film unless it is of course the brilliant directing from Phil Hawkins and the fantastic work of the whole team that worked on the film for just 2 whole days! And all in the budget of £20k it just goes to show that money can't buy talent ... so it's a good job these guys were born with it! The tale of John Foster and his drunken attempt to gain financial security in today's recession by selling himself on an online auction site not only lands him in serious trouble with his wife but also gains copious amounts of unwanted attention from the media. As you see the bidding war unfold, performances from the cast will have you in tears, both happy and sad, but nothing will prepare you for the ending. A big risk to take but it definitely paid off! This film deserves the praise and attention its receiving (and more) and most definitely deserves more awards! EVERYBODY GO WATCH!
score 10/10
