Advantages: original, witty, gentle comedy Disadvantages: slush, and some really bad acting
“I’ll be there” is quite a strange film. Not because its really peculiar, but because it’s a bit like sitting in a welsh kitchen for a couple of hours and listening to some of your neighbours discuss their family trouble. Maybe it’s the whole British film thing: it’s not so very far removed from the completely possible, everyday sort of thing, unlike the complete escapism from reality offered by the bigger budget ... ...an evening in Wales. It felt almost as if I was intruding into Charlotte Church’s life.
It’s not about Charlotte Church herself (allegedly) but the story is clearly written with her in mind. Actually, I think Craig Ferguson wrote it with himself in mind: you can tell from watching it that he always wanted to be a rock star, and this gives him the perfect opportunity to cast himself in that role.
