Nocturnal

To those who are trying to figure out whether to watch it: pay attention to where it says "Genre: Drama", and not so much to the title which can be misleading.

My rating: 6.7.

Enjoyed it! Gripped the whole way and great performances from Cosmo and Lauren.

I was lucky enough to watch this film at the BFI festival and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. It never underestimated its audience; the characters are constantly in psychological motion, and the audience are artfully conveyed on their journey. We get to know them, walk with them, laugh, hate and grow with them. I couldn't recommend this beautifully shot piece more!

Cosmo Jarvis looks like he is about to take over from Tom Hardy as the next big male lead. His large presence in both stature and performance speaks volumes. Nocturnal is an intriguing tale of a friendship between 16 year old Laurie and 33 year old Pete, there is an underlying current to the friendship with a grey area as to why...

Generally good film, but Adam Kerr's performance in the night club evokes feelings of Marlon Brando's golden years. Fully recommend, if only for Kerr's crowning depiction of modern dance culture.
