Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle The charming story of a rough-and-tumble dreamer who tried to make his own little Hollywood in the rain-drenched shadow of the Pennine hills. Sep 30, 2023 Full Review Damon Wise Deadline Hollywood Daily Twemlow never made a masterpiece, but this sweet, moving film will convince you that in a funny way he did. Many, in fact, all in his head, and this film is the closest we’ll ever get to seeing them. Nov 16, 2023 Full Review Keri O'Shea Warped Perspective If this affectionate, informative documentary encourages more people to check out Twemlow’s films and/or to delve into this record of a unique point in time, then that can be no bad thing. Nov 1, 2023 Full Review Ben Bradley Starburst In a similar fashion to Being Frank, Mancunian Man takes an underrated northern artist whose impact could have been greater given the right breaks... An essential watch for anyone remotely interested in indie film and the crazy days of the VHS era. Rated: 5/5 Oct 18, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
