Gregory’s Girl (1980)

  • Summary

  • Welcome to 'Don't You Want Me?' - a podcast series taking a lighthearted look at the most relatable, intriguing and dysfunctional relationships in film.

    Tonight we’ll be having a kickabout with the 1980 coming-of-age romantic comedy Gregory’s Girl. Directed and written by Bill Forsyth, this is a film with a small budget and a huge legacy. How does it tackle the course of true love? What does it say about the goals of adolescent romance? Which ideas still bounce, more than forty years on from its release? To help us answer these vinegar-soaked questions is master of pop Iain McDermott, host of one of our favourite podcasts Back to Now! If you enjoy this episode, please leave a rating and a review as it really helps the podcast reach more people - modern girls, modern boys.
