  • ""It's 1985, Thatcher's in power, The Cure are In Between Days, and Marty McFly;s trying to get Back to the Future. James McAvoy is Brian Jackson, a wide-eyed working class kid whose exhaustive grasp of general knowledge leaves him wanting when it comes to women. On his way to achieving his long held ambition to appearing on University Challenge, he falls in love with fellow student and team-mate Alice, by rights activist Rebecca, all whilst trying not to become the student w***** that his hometown mates think he'll turn into" -- Container."

  • "From the producers of My Big Fat Greek Wedding, comes a rollicking bittersweet comedy about British university life in the '80s. James McAvoy (The Last King of Scotland) stars as Brian, a working class student from Essex navigating his first year at Bristol University with a ragtag group of new friends. Brian's life-long dream is to join the team for the British quiz show University Challenge...and to pull Alice, the fittest girl on the team. Set against the backdrop of Thatcher-era Britain, defined by the music of New Order, The Cure and The Smiths, Starter for 10 is the UK's long-awaited, heartwarning and hilarious answer to the John Hughes films of the '80s."@en
