Giddy Stratospheres

I absolutely loved this movie. It really took me back to this time in London and touched all the right spots of my heart. I think a lot of people can identify with it. It's a shame some of the reviews here seem to be written by men who would have vanished under the #metoo movement had we been luck enough to have it kick off back then.

Flashback to 2006 with a killer soundtrack. Great watch, beautifully shot. Would definately recommend.

As an indie club promoter during the noughties I was eagerly awaiting this film. I felt it captured the 'hedonisitic fragility' that I saw week in week out back then. The ongoing volatile party that could veer off into drama at any time. The change of tone was well handled and powerful.

It would be amiss of me not to mention the soundtrack as I hadn't heard songs like Decent Days & Nights or Emily Kane for years. Some great music on there and that alone will drag you in.

I ABSOLUTELY loved this film. I found out about it from a guardian article.

I think it really captures the 00's well and has moments of real beauty. It's also pretty hilarious too (I watched it with a group of friends and we were all cracking up)

I also thought the writing was engrossing. Laura's clearly a very talented creative. Her dialogue is witty, heartfelt and embedded in truth.

In just over an hour this film manages to truly encapsulate the indie scene with all its pros and cons.

It takes courage to write, act and direct a film like this. Especially when you consider that it was made in the midst of a pandemic.

I would suggest you watch it on the biggest screen possible, as it has some lovely cinematography.

Stunning film capturing the highs & lows of a movement I would've dreamed to be a part of, the music is impeccable and a touching story. All the characters are so vibrant and the flashbacks that take place help tell the story so well.
