Post Grad & Jack Savoretti



Post Grad is the kind of movie that should be safely in every DVD collection. Released in 2009, it received unsavoury reviews from movie goers and critics alike. I can't quite understand why.

The story revolves around a young woman and her desire to follow her career dreams only to have them crushed, and for the rest of the movie we're taken on a quirky and entertaining walk through the lives of her family running parallel to her misfortunes.
It's all quite amusing and sentimental at times. The bad reviews probably stemmed from critics that spend too much time devouring children while they dream (see The Proposal) instead of just sitting back and watching a nicely put together love story.

That's all I really want to say about the movie - go take a look, and if you like it; HOORAY!

Jack Savoretti who loaned his song "One Day" to a scene within the movie deserves a mention. The track captures the essence of what part of the film is essentially about and is just nice to play to someone you really like or love, if you dare.
