Sunday night at Sundance marked the world premiere of Clubland, the Australian coming-of-age story by director Cherie Nowland and writer Keith Thompson. (My colleague, Angie Tipton, managed to score some tickets for the event after hearing of my interview with Nowland and the movie’s lead actress, Brenda Blethyn.)
In the spirit of full disclosure, I must say that I really wanted to like this movie before ever setting foot into the Eccles theater. Both Cherie and Brenda were amazingly humble and kind people who you couldn’t help but root for.
