Out of DVD and blue-ray in the U.K. on 28 September, 2009, the sharp and provocative Awaydays tells the story of thrill-seeking Carty, who meets the mysterious Elvis at a Bunnymen gig, after which they fall headlong into a volatile friendship that neither of them can control.
Violent, sexy and funny, Awaydays is a blade-sharp rites-of-passage film that buzzes with the post-punk energy of late-70s Liverpool. Based on the classic novel by Kevin Sampson, and pulsating to a soundtrack of Joy Division, The Cure, Magazine, Echo & The Bunnymen and Ultravox, Awaydays examines identity, fate, the nature of male longing and the need for young men to belong. It is the first major feature film to be set during, and evocatively portray, the first dawning of the football casual fashion cult, and one of the best.
To celebrate the DVD and blu-ray release of Awaydays, and thanks to our friends at Optimum Releasing, we have 3 copies of the DVD to give away in our special Awaydays competition. We rated this film on its theatrical release (just read our review), and think that you will too.
