Flashbacks of a Fool
Drama
An aging Hollywood star, Joe Scott, lives a life of narcissistic hedonism, observed by his laconic personal assistant, Ophelia. The death of his childhood best friend, Boots, takes our protagonist, and the movie, into an extended flashback to a sea-side town in 1970s Britain.
VIBE
A hazy, sun-drenched dream of youth and regret. It feels like flipping through old photographs, tinged with the bittersweet ache of what's lost. A slow, reflective journey into the past.
