The Way Way Back

One of the great things about blogging is that occasionally, I get invited to attend these kinds of events.

The Way Way Back

No, I don't often get invited  to sit at the back of a boat eating and drinking.  I do enough of that with Mr Beach House.  But next week, my son and I have been invited to a private screening of a coming of age movie called The Way Way Back

Ah the teenage years

THE WAY, WAY BACK is the funny and poignant

coming-of-age story of 14-year-old Duncan's (Liam James)

summer vacation with his mother, Pam (Toni Collette), her

overbearing boyfriend, Trent (Steve Carell), and his daughter

Steph (Zoe Levin). Having a rough time fitting in, the

introverted Duncan finds an unexpected friend in gregarious

Owen (Sam Rockwell), manager of the Water Wizz water

park. Through his funny, clandestine friendship with Owen,

Duncan slowly opens up and begins to finally find his place in

the world—all during a summer he will never forget.

It's the school holidays and I am going on a date with the Beach House Brat.  From the look of the trailer, I think this is one movie we will both enjoy.  I shall let you know next week.  I adore Toni Colette, so am looking forward to it.

If you can't load that version here it is 

here.

Weirdly, the movie trailer just brought a tear to my eye.  As an ex teacher, I have a soft spot for teenage boys.

I think this is going to be good.
