I did enjoy it, but it's more gentle and home-made than many movies with wide distribution, as perhaps befits an exploration of one's vanishing childhood. I think it holds my interest more because I already know and care who Thomas Dolby is, and can relate to the lighthouse and land slipping into the sea from my summers (and winters!) in Happisburgh. The approach of mixed film and live sound and lights worked well, the extra songs and "Making Of" talk were a treat.

If I were a callow youth I might be inclined to slate it as a "Dad's Home Movie" but I'm not, so I think it was sweet and touching and cool that you can go off in all these new directions with your career.
