Avis à la une
Social drama that says a great deal about society today. Our own weaknesses and dreams never happening. How we cope and address them by not being honest at the cause of the problem and how our complacency allows it to continue. A film that examines all these issues and doesn't judge. Powerful stuff.
Nicola Burley is the only light in this drama, the rest of it is dull. There is no ending, almost a depressing soap episode that doesn't have a follow through. The roles are all generic and nothing different. The monotonous dull scenes of how Lynn was feeling made me want to hit the fast forward button, although I didn't, when I got to the end I wish I had. Like watching paint dry.
It's within the power of filmmakers to affect our emotions and here, the uncomfortable discomfort felt, watching the relationship of two best friends crumble, under the saddest of scenarios, is nailed with two sublime female performances - in fact, the whole cast of ladies is superb!
While I'm very much a fan of British kitchen-sink realism, I found Lynn + Lucy to be excessively turgid and ultimately quite tiresome. I understand the style, I understand the message and I understand the level of confronting bleakness. But the endless hesitancy and sullen silences of Roxanne Scrimshaw just became exhausting. People may wax lyrical about her performance but I found her portrayal to be contrived and unrealistic. I appreciate what Boulifa is trying to do with this film but for me it just felt a little forced and indulgent.
Movie night with Iris.
Debut from writer-director Fyzal Boulifa documents irresponsible parenting and its catastrophic results. However, of greater interest is the haste and heartlessness of the judgements which follow, with vilification spreading through a working-class community like a virus.
Filmed in nearby Harlow shot in a narrow frame Essex, you feel as trapped as the estate protagonists. Lynn + Lucy is a thought-provoking, worthy watch that asks us to see the human beings behind the horor headlines and consider the consequences of our words.

- AnecdotesThe reality of both girls appearing to live in Council Houses, ie, provided by the local authority, and opposite each other, is less likely than winning the lottery. Even if both girls had attempted to get on the social housing list by pretending to be single mothers without partners, ie, a fraudulent claim, they'd typically have to wait three years to apply, with partners the wait would be even longer due to a shortage of such housing as much of it has been sold off by councils to raise funds.
