Ginger And Rosa - 2012 - 6/10
Story of two teenage girls in early 60’s England.
Almost the same time as An Education, only G&R was specifically 1962.
Pre Swinging London, British Invasion. The look, music (jazz from Cool School), themes, all slightly darker than the flowering future.
Film adverts trumpet the conflicts the friends suffer because of the threat of nuclear annihilation, but that is a side plot. The story is actually a coming of age drama.
Excellent acting all around, and it went pretty quick, especially for a Sally Potter work.
