Quell the Valentine's Day Dread

Dreading Valentine’s Day? Aren’t we all.

Well, luckily Netflix (as per usual) are here to help. They have revealed that Girlfriend’s Day will be released on February 14^th to help anyone in need of an anti-depressant for the evening.

Sound like the usual soppy drivel? Quite the opposite. Girlfriend’s Day looks to be a cutting, blunt and relatively dark film whose protagonist is a pessimistic, card-writing widow; ironically he also writes romantic cards. With the line “I hate optimistic people” appearing in the trailer, you know it’s going to be very apt for its timely release. It looks weird, wonderful, confusing and bizarre; a wacky, unusual piece of cinematography.  

Have a look at the trailer here and hopefully it helps quell the depressing chronophobia as the 14^th draws near.
