I Used To Be Famous

This movie out of England is the directorial debut for Eddie Sternberg based on his award-winning short film of the same name. I love movies that connect with audiences on an emotional level and this movie has a lot of heart. It had a realness to it, at least for me, and felt very authentic. I'm not familiar with any of the actors, but they did so well I didn't know if they were acting. The lead (Ed Skrein) was so talented with music and singing in the film that I looked up to see if he really was a famous musician (apparently he was a rapper). I also had to look up Leo Long to see if he was really an autistic drummer or not (he is, and plays more than the drums). If you want a good heartfelt movie, don't pass this one up!
