after see purely belter i come onto this site to review it and but not only that i also have to check out the resume of the screenwriter or director mark herman . as soon a his name appear on the opening credit i know that i have see his name before somewhere and after check i find out he write and direct the film version of little voice one of the most underrated feelgood british movie of the 1990s purely belter be an entirely different kettle of fish . it a grim stereotypical view of geordie life and a very unfunny one at that . everyone be either a wife beater and a single mother and a shoplifter and a drunk or a junkie . since many scene be set in a school the pe teacher be a sadistic bully and that the close the film ever get to reality . oh and everyone be very foul mouth which add to the grim unlikable atmospherei do not like purely belter much while i watch and now that i know who mark herman be i like it even less . with little voice herman prove you can make an amusing uplifting comedy feature northern soul but i have to ask where his undoubted talent go in this movie .
