Been So Long
On the streets of Camden City and on the melodious music of London, the relationship that Simon raises, a dedicated single mother in the city, is ignited with a handsome, rude stranger called Raymond. Raymond is the young man who will ignite with Raymond those old and new feelings like music, love and lost feelings.

Cool actors playing cool characters in a Camden that Londoners will actually recognise (grotty, gorgeous, just about keeping gentrification at bay). Who could ask for anything more?

Few things make the heart sink in advance than 'low-budget British musical,' but it's a credit to Krishnan, Walker and the rest of the team that, after a slightly rocky start, I felt fully won over by the end of the film.
