Funny and Touching

This film kicks ass, not literally but in a the way a film should- it's social realism at it's finest, and trust me, I don't like the social realism of the Ken Loach variety, except for Looking For Eric and Kes. I digress. Essentially, this film, A Safe Place, is about three people that live in a care home, and one of them steals the safe, which is sort of a ploy in the story, a focal point to a greater issue at hand, which I won't and can't say. A Safe Place takes a subject matter that could have been heavy and boring, and makes it fun.

British Indie film Gold

Some great performances, really liked a lot of the settings and atmosphere, cool music too that was at times quirky. The actor who plays Kevin is very good, like to see more of him. Lots of other fine actors too. The prostitutes, the crazy guy Frank is in your face, and Earl and Oberon who seem to live in some parallel universe. The treatment of a care home in modern day Britain rang true for me having experience in that sector, and which intrigued me to watch. John Henry Westhead of Clerks fame directed this one and apparently he has a couple of more bigger budget movies coming soon?

It delivers

I randomly saw this pop up on Amazon Prime so I decided to watch it. I didn't know what to expect, but what I got was a phenomenal film about the lives of people in a similar vein to the work of Cassavetes. It delivers.

I would watch this film, if you know what's good for you

Odd film, quirky, not sure odd is the right word. I'll just say it was up my street, Not that I'm odd. And I'm not sure it's everyone's bowl of soup, but I certainly recommend it.

Stylish indie caper

A Safe Place is a black comedy-drama about three people living in a home. We follow the escapades of Earl, Kevin and Teddy as their support workers struggle to keep up with their world. This unblinking portrait of England's modern care system could have made for heavy viewing, but the film's playful heist elements, stylish film noir tendencies and gentle upbeat vibe come together in a way which is funny, troubling and hopeful all at once. An atmospheric, intriguing and fun little indie film with a lot of heart.
