Like everyone else, Geoffrey and Beryl want to fall in love – or they think they do; like everyone else, since Adam and Eve. But Adam and Eve didn’t live in Manchester in 1972…

Reviews
Thehibikiew Not even bad in a good way
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
