The Scouting Book for Boys

I was looking up Noah and The whale as I was going to do a music review on their new track and I stumbled across this film one of their songs is featured on.
The film is about best friends David and Emily and their life on a coastal caravan park. Their world gets turned upside down when Emily is forced to move away. David helps his best friend to hide out in a cave on a remote part of the beech to prevent her from moving away. The police soon get involved in the missing persons case, and David's innocent idea to save his friend get complicated. The real reason for Emily's escape comes to light, shattering David's world. Swept up in a situation out of his control, and with his feelings for his best friend growing stranger by the day, David is forced to take action.

The director of Slumdog Millionaire and the writer from Skins, surely a winning duo.

If you think you recognise the boy in it...you do! He is from This is England and  Eden Lake. 
Thomas Turgoose is a brilliant actor, and I have heard that he is a real saving grace in this movie. Give the trailer a watch!
