“The speedy, funny, happy-sad spirit of “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World” is infectious.” New York Times
A perfectly cast Michael Cera plays a floundering bass player trying to make it big with his band Sex Bob-Omb. His life takes a dramatic turn when falls head over heels for the (literal) girl of his dreams, Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), and has to battle her seven Evil Exes to win her heart.
Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz) captures the essence of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s comic world with its homage to comics, old-school video games and indie music, but mixes in his own fascinations with Bollywood, Asian action films, and sitcoms.
Whilst critics acclaimed its kinetic style, the film was considered a commercial flop at the time but has since developed a cult following. Plus, there’s a great soundtrack, written especially for the film by Beck, Broken Social Scene, and Nigel Godrich (producer for Radiohead.)
This event is part Other Ways of Seeing, an initiative supported by BFI awarding funds from National Lottery.
