BBC - Singer Of The World - Cardiff (Wide Screen)

Advantages: A decent british flick
Disadvantages: The darn weather

...Ok, this film was made well after the whole rave scene and quite often films of this type don’t seem to work. But this film does, taking in one long, messy weekend in the lives of five Cardiff teenagers, Human Traffic is a rather pacy comedy that seems to ring true. The story follows a rave, from its stressful organisation all the way to coping with Sunday afternoon. With some humerous bits in between (especially a certain interruption by a mother). I only recognised a few of the cast but still they did their job. This actually a damn good film with only a couple of dull moments.... Read review

Advantages: Accurate depiction of rave culture
Disadvantages: Weak on plot

Lots of diligent work showed that there had been some vast eruptions in the past and there were layers of volcanic ash found very large distances from the park. So the big question was" Just where is this volcano?" After all we were used to volcano's being rather large mountains. But there are others and when they blew and collapsed they left rather a large whole in the ground called a caldera. But there was none that could be identified! Then it finally dawned on scientists. The whole park was the volcano!! An area some 34 miles by 44 miles was the volcanic caldera... Read review
