You’d expect a drama about loss, love and regret to be heavy and dramatic, but Sometimes Always Never is not. This delightfully offbeat British movie starring Bill Nighy and Sam Riley and directed by Carl Hunter has a surprisingly light touch and manages to be emotionally moving without being overwrought. Sometimes Always Never is eccentric and stylised enough that it’s unlikely to appeal to a broad audience, but those who do seek it out will be rewarded. Alan (Nighy) has been searching for his son Michael for some time. Years earlier, Michael walked out of the family home after an argument over a game of Scrabble. He’s not been seen or heard from since. Alan and his other son Peter (Riley) have come together at a seaside town with a grim task ? to see whether an unidentified body is that of Michael’s. While there overnight, they meet a couple that has come to look at the same body. Whiling away the time, Alan agrees to a game of Scrabble, revealing himself to be quite the shark, wise of the triple-word-score ways and playing the likes of “muzjik” (which is an indentured Russian servant, by the way). This is a family obsessed with “lovely words”, even if they are terrible at communicating. The collection of seemingly random words, laid out on that Scrabble board for no purpose other to score something over your component, and not words with which you could use to form a sentence and express anything real, is symbolic of Alan and Peter’s inability to connect with each other. It’s no coincidence that glass barriers often separate characters. Alan moves in with Peter and his family and becomes entangled in their daily dramas, but can he learn to reconnect with the son that stayed, the one he’s neglected while he’s been busy obsessing over the one that left? That is, until he starts to play online Scrabble with someone he’s convinced is Michael, trying to send him a message through those little lettered tiles. Alan is a mild-mannered man and a tailor by trade ? the Sometimes Always Never title refers to the buttoning order on men’s suit jackets. Alan also has the benefit of Nighy’s full-bodied, doubled-over laughs ? a phenomenon you could watch for hours. It’s a gorgeously crafted film with striking compositions and a detailed production design, with its timeless aesthetic, rich colours and patterns that makes everything feel slightly otherworldly. Sometimes Always Never even manages to sneak in what is surely a cheeky reference to The Seventh Seal, so it’s as far removed from a typical domestic drama as you can imagine ? it’s definitely not what you imagine it to be. There’s a formalism in the performances and the overall feel of Sometimes Always Never, which, as much as it is a stylistic choice, also serves to highlight how the characters have been emotionally paralysed by this event ? Michael’s absence ? unable to move or feel freely, as if they’re trapped in a museum diorama. The effect is hypnotic ? you wouldn’t dare look away. Sometimes, that makes the film feel emotionally distant, but the affecting ending ties together this sweet, kind-hearted film in a way that more than satisfies. Rating: ★★★?

Clue, based on Cluedo, came with lashings of high camp but flopped nevertheless, while Battleship stank ? and sank. Ridley Scott’s Monopoly film, announced in 2008, has still not passed “Go”, and there will have been disappointment for any games fanatics hoping to be catered for by Twister and Downfall. Perhaps the board-game box-office jinx is what led the makers of a new, Scrabble-oriented comedy-drama to ditch their original title, “Triple Word Score”, in favour of the harder-to-remember Sometimes Always Never. In one of those Scenes Which Explain the Title, we learn that this one?refers to the three buttons on a suit, and when (if ever) they should be fastened. Alan (Bill Nighy) is the tailor dispensing the advice, though his abiding passion is?Scrabble. He’ll even feign inexperience when playing against strangers, casually suggesting a flutter on the outcome and then fleecing his opponents as though he’s Paul Newman in The Hustler. That could serve as a metaphor for Nighy’s own acting style. There he is, bumbling away hopelessly, usually in a cardigan or cravat, and before you know it he’s pulled off some deft piece of emotional sleight-of-hand. Alan and his adult son Peter (Sam?Riley) are on their way to the morgue where they are to identify a body that may be that of Peter’s brother, Michael, missing since storming out of a Scrabble game at home years earlier. The film, intended in all other respects to be light and wacky, never really recovers from that macabre starting point, or from the scene in which Alan reacts with unseemly briskness to the news that it isn’t Michael who’s been found after all. Another couple, who have come to see if it’s their boy on the slab, sit only metres away. From here, the picture takes a meandering course. Alan moves in with Peter and his wife Sue (Alice Lowe), and shares a bunk-bed with Jack (Louis Healy), the teenage grandson hooked on computer games. Alan’s sartorial influence makes the lad a hit with Rachel (Ella-Grace Gregoire), the girl at the bus stop. Meanwhile, Alan becomes convinced that an anonymous online Scrabble opponent is in fact Michael. He sets off to find him and Peter follows. En route?Peter encounters a waitress with a fondness for the word “soap” and bumps into Alexei Sayle in a boatyard. Well, why not? Phrase by phrase, Frank Cottrell-Boyce’s screenplay is often delightful. Take Alan’s staccato explanation for why he won’t drive at night: “A-roads in the dark. Oncoming. Full-beam. Nightmarish. ” But the script’s ideas don’t quite graduate convincingly into themes. Peter recalls with chagrin how his childhood was littered with cheap versions of popular toys ? not Subbuteo but Chad Valley Big League, not Scrabble but a rip-off with flimsy cardboard tiles. The film isn’t even halfway done when Alan spells out the subtext: “You also didn’t have a mother, you had a dad. A poor substitute there. ” The moral is: make the best of what you’ve got rather than fretting over what you’re missing. The question is whether Alan will be able to heed his own advice and appreciate the son who’s right in front of him instead of pining endlessly for the one who left. The director Carl Hunter, formerly the bassist of the Liverpudlian band the Farm, puts rather too much faith in quirkiness to see the film through. Many of the sets are painted in doleful Aki Kaurismäki colours: a dingy hotel bar is decked out in lime with pools of unflattering light, while the magenta cabinets in Peter’s kitchen are offset by walls of turquoise and pistachio. Pointedly artificial driving scenes have a goofy, CBeebies feel, and there’s also an animated boat which sinks at sea. On this evidence, Hunter is auditioning to be the cut-price British Wes Anderson. Even that coveted film-maker, though, is guilty of a certain airlessness, and Hunter should play instead to his own strengths. He coaxes good work from Jenny Agutter as the mother of the other missing son, and from Healy and Gregoire, who are fresh and naturalistic as the teenage lovebirds. If his follow-up doesn’t strain quite so hard for eccentricity, it might not feel like such a trivial pursuit. Sometimes Always Never (12A) dir: Carl Hunter.

Sometimes Always Never Directed by Carl Hunter Written by Frank Cottrell Boyce Starring Bill Nighy Sam Riley Alice Lowe Jenny Agutter Tim McInnerny Release date 12?October?2018 ( BFI London Film Festival) Country United Kingdom Language English Box office $1. 45 million [1] Sometimes Always Never is a 2018 comedy-drama film, directed by Carl Hunter and written by Frank Cottrell Boyce. The film is produced by Sol Papadopoulos, Alan Latham, and Roy Boulter under the banner of Hurricane Films. The film stars Bill Nighy, Sam Riley, Alice Lowe, Jenny Agutter, and Tim McInnerny. Cast [ edit] Bill Nighy as Alan Sam Riley as Peter Alice Lowe as Sue Jenny Agutter as Margaret Tim McInnerny as Arthur Reception [ edit] On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 89% based on 46 reviews, and an average rating of 7. 05/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Like the grieving Scrabble enthusiast at the heart of its unique story, Sometimes Always Never scores high enough to be well worth a play. " [2] Metacritic reports a score of 71/100 based on 9 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [3] Kambole Campbell of Empire wrote, "Despite strong performances and a witty script, Sometimes Always Never lays on the homage a little too thick for its own good, shortchanging itself by imitating a particularly idiosyncratic style. " [4] Wendy Ide of The Guardian wrote, "The danger of an offbeat British film, particularly one that is as emphatically designed as this, is that it could teeter into whimsy and artifice. But thanks to Cottrell Boyce, and the assured direction of first-time feature film-maker Carl Hunter, the emotional beats are authentic and the distinctive look of the film ? it takes its aesthetic cues from '60s ties and '70s wallpaper ? never upstages the story.

Full movie sometimes always never work. Full Movie Sometimes Always never forget. This trailer really hit home for me. Ive seen a number of friends and family who are teen parents and Ive witnessed their struggles to make amends with their decisions, whether it was to keep the baby or to abort. Society tells them theyre low-life idiots for getting pregnant young, society calls them irresponsible when they struggle to provide for a kid they werent ready to have, society calls them murderers when they terminate the pregnancy all together because even with the governments intervention, they still cant afford to sacrifice the amount of time and money it will take to just keep a roof over the kids head. This is a problem a lot of youths, especially young ladies, are faced with today, this scrutiny from all ends. You cant please society, no matter what choice you make. That is why young ladies should always preserve the right to make the choice that is best for them and their situation, not what is best for someone elses peace of mind.
