When you walk out of the cinema after having seen a film like Billy Elliot, you can't help but have a wide grin on your face. Sure, you may look like an idiot, but who cares after a movie experience like this one? Billy Elliot is without a doubt the best film I have seen this year at the cinema (even better than Fight Club, and we all know [I hope] that FC is a brilliant film). It's a typical British film, and I mean that in the best way possible. Brilliant actors, a great story, great production design (feels like you're there), great direction, sadness and jokes and that special mood and tone of a British comedy/drama. And Jamie Bell is magnificent as Billy. I just have one thing to say to director Stephen Daldry and all the actors and everyone else who worked on Billy Elliot: thanks for making this film! (10/10)
