i have to admit that i do not know how festival end . i give up on it after just over half an hour . my wife give up on it during the opening credit and which be accompany by the most grating music ever use in cinema . imagine the baying of a brazen pack of hell hound and up the volume to 11. youre still not even close to how nasty it sound . writer or director annie griffin be responsible for one of my favourite tv series and the book group and a funny and often move tale of an odd bunch of literary fan and also set in edinburgh . unfortunately and she drop the ball pretty badly with festival . concentrate on a 3rd series of the book group would have be a much good idea and annie . despite a talented cast ( include many fine comic actor ) the film fall into a ditch thanks to the clichéd script and stereotypical character . have be introduce to the unlikeable star and the feisty journalist and the rude and unhelpful stage manager and the uptight pa and the insecure comedian and a host of similar mini grotesque and i find that i have no interest in what happen to any of them . what be the point of watch people who be either deeply unsympathetic or as wet a a water meadow if youre not be pay to do so . i ask myself . when i also realise that i hadn not laugh once in 30 minute and i conclude that it be time to turn the tv off . nasty lottery fund rubbish . if you watch this all the way through and hate it and do not say that i do not warn you .
