Review of Flashbacks of a Fool (2008) by Ashley E — 23 Apr 2008
[size=3][font=Times New Roman]Young Joe Scott, played by Harry Eden, and his childhood crush, Ruth, played by Felicity Jones, are certain to be two of Britain?s upcoming stars. As we are taken back in time, Joe?s hormonal emotions are depicted so truthfully we can relate to them as if they are our very own. [/font][/size].
[size=3][font=Times New Roman]The performances from Daniel Craig, Harry Eden, and Felicity Jones particularly make this film a must see. The writer/director, Baillie Walsh, creates an almost dreamlike quality to his shots which results in a superb scene between the young Joe Scot and Ruth dancing to the legendary Roxy Music.

[size=3][font=Times New Roman]The performances, locations and soundtrack in Flashbacks of a Fool all come together to create a stunning and emotional film. I would highly recommend watching it. I even bought the soundtrack yesterday, it?s that good![/font][/size].
