4 star rating THE Screened Review by Alex Navarro

Though drenched in gallons of quirky preciousness, Submarine is far more than the sum of its many affectations.

Richard Ayoade director

Directed by The IT Crowd's Richard Ayoade, Submarine comedically depicts the troubles of a 15 year old boy who tries to lose his virginity by his next birthday, and to stop his mother from leaving his father for her dance instructor.

Quote: Oliver Tate

Most people think of themselves as indivuiduals, like there's nobody on the planet like them. This motivates them to get out of bed, eat food, and move around like nothings wrong.

This buzzed-about British coming-of-age drama is also engendering a lot of Wes Anderson comparisons.
