Daniel Craig delivers a startling performance as Joe Scott, a washed-up Hollywood star adrift in a haze of sex, drugs and squandered fame. But when he receives news of the sudden death of his childhood best friend, Joe flashes back to his younger self (played by Harry Eden) in his small English seaside village and the summer of innocence and tragedy that would change his life forever. (official distributor synopsis)

A jaded Hollywood star questions his conscience in the form of a personal memory of a turning point in his youth. The cinematography and music play on your feelings, but where did the plot they were supposed to frame go? It’s kitschy as hell but brilliantly shot.
