Review of Lad: A Yorkshire Story (2013)

This film landed in my inbox so didn't know what to expect but was not disappointed. The film tells the moving story of a young boy, and those around him, coming to terms and handling the loss of a close one.

The film is well-paced and the dialog fits perfectly. Yes, *some* of the acting is a little fresh but it really doesn't take anything away from the film. The film is sensitive, honest and touching.

The setting is great and the director does a good job of showing off a bit of northern England.

Check the tags and if they resonate with you then it's definitely worth a watch.
