INSIDE I'M DANCING (2004) - ♦♦♦

Directed by - Damien O'Donnell

Written by - Jeffrey Caine, Christian O'Reilly

Starring - James McAvoy, Steven Robertson, Romola Garai

"The tale of the friendship between a rebellious young man with muscular dystrophy and another with celebral palsy, who manage to get out of their institution and get their own home, where they are assisted by a young girl named Siobhan. The three have fun times together, tainted only by the first’s unpredictable behaviours. Though the film starts at a lively pace that seems to defy the boundaries of similar films about people with disabilities, towards the middle the film changes considerably into an overlong episode of a soap opera. Nevertheless, the two lead actors, both able bodied in real life, give excellent performances."
