Description

This retelling of the 60's cult classic Harold and Maude has a quite unassuming charm of its own. Shy and downtrodden Ben Marshall (Rupert Grint) is on another dreary school holiday in this rite of passage comedy. Seventeen years old and living in an awful home environment, with an evangelical yet adulterous mother and a milquetoast vicar dad, Ben has both a loveless and a joyless existence.

However, Ben’s world is turned upside down when he takes a job caring for a semi-retired actress...she whisks him away on a series of adventures including camping, going to the Edinburgh festival, and Shakespeare. He finally manages to break free from his parents in fine fashion.
