Uh BTW here is what I wrote about the film : http://blogs.amnesty.org.uk...
This is a powerful movie. I have written my own review on AmnestyBlogs, but I think that it shows what true love n passion is... I mean, risking your lives n safety for the sake of playing a gig!!!!
It makes me think a lot, about how superficial most of these young alternative cool-looking kids are in here London/Europe... so sad!

If you dont get this humour you should seek therapy , honestly!
She is too uncomfortable to watch and I just don't think she's funny. She never makes me laugh and I don't think she gets a point across. I really think a lot of people don't get it, personally I don't want to get it. Nervous laughter isn't good. The audience are not sure a lot of the time. At the Amnesty Ball she is playing to an audience that probably have a better understanding but I can just imagine this kind of material going out to a much wider audience, many will be laughing for completely the wrong reasons.
Hated this when I saw it in 2006. She's grown on me in that time. Think her timing is good, it's just that her content cuts really close to the bone. Found it a lot funnier on repeat.
Really good, entertaining and thought provoking.
It was giraffes and tigers this year.
Yes I agree mrdamian. I had an open mind when it came to all things Russell Brand but he almost won me over. I need to see a little more though to me utterly convinced.
Eddie at his best. I've been a far since his early days. I just have to mention the bee sketch to have my wife in tears! Insane yet brillient.
