Cath Clarke Guardian Both Kerr and Burchill come across as unpretentious, down to earth and likable. Rated: 3/5 Dec 19, 2023 Full Review Peter Watts Uncut Magazine [UK] Kerr and Burchill, still great pals, return to Glasgow throughout the film, emphasising the importance of the city on their development, particularly how it gave focus to their own monumental ambition.
