I love the arts. It's my life line. It my relaxant. Music, books, movies, paintings etc I enrich myself in.
The people who make art probably aren't very nice people, especially to work with within their private space. It's a price to pay for creativity.
Young aspiring writer Liam finds this out when he agrees to tutor the spoilt, rude son of a famous novelist into getting into Oxford.
The famous writer JM Sinclair is played with relish by Richard E Grant as a cold, rude and narcissistic writer.
Normally I wouldn't have cared less about these prissy idiots and would advise Liam to get the hell out of there however I somewhat enjoyed watching Sinclair get his comeuppance!
It's good to see Julie Delpy again (although sadly and unfortunately she looks a lot like Sarah Orr!), that put me off.
As much as I like reading, I find those that take literature too seriously are tedious bores that seem superior to others and want to exert this superiority onto others-like Mark banging on and on about Burgess and Judy about Hardy.
Watching this film felt like being lectured into how to write the perfect prose; only to finally realise- no-one really cares!
