2008 GB Shane Meadows
✰✰✰
Polish immigrant meets British rascal, make friendship, share an older, French first-love. Meadows channels simplicity and the taste of Jules et Jim. Characters are deeper than appear, story is not; could have been a Eurostar (financier) commercial, but isn't. Good tone, teases against sinister expectations. Bad montages, especially at the end, in colour. Slight only on the surface. Hemingway's iceberg floats down below.
