London Betty



Indie comedy that doesn't dissapoint.
I had been waiting to see London Betty for quite some time because of the director, Thomas Edward Seymour's previous work. While a fan of his supernatural/comic influenced "Land of College Prophets", I was much more impressed with his first film, "Everything Moves Alone". I thought the premise for "London Betty" sounded much more like his earlier work and I was anxious to see if he delivered another great independent comedy - even if his first film did have many dramatic themes, it still made me laugh on numerous occasions.

"London Betty" did not disappoint. As a full length feature, it keeps your interest from start to finish. The witty dialogue and over the top antics kept me laughing throughout the film. While some of the acting is not what you would consider "Oscar worthy", it did contribute to some of the laughs that were experienced throughout the film. The title character, Betty, played by who I found out from the director commentary is Seymour's long time...

London Betty is full of suprises
If you like indie comedies you will love "London Betty." There are a lot
of great small budget films like "London Betty" being made that just don't make it to the
mainstream because of limited ad budgets compared to the major studios
beating their drums about how great their films are.

I don't want to be a spoiler so I will just say this film has a great story, wonderful performances,
and some great shots in this film. This is a great film to buy.

"London Betty" Review
Betty has moved across the pond to become a real life American reporter, but when her first story assignment turns out to be just another fluff piece she begins to think twice about the move. Discouraged and looking for allies Betty forms an unlikely bond with the neighborhood thieves and together they set out to investigate the town's crooked Mayor. Betty might just get her first real news story, but she'll have to be in cahoots with thieves to get it.

This indie film is awesome!!! Thomas Edward Seymour directed the film, who has an ample amount of experience in the indie film business. This quirky comedy will definitely bring you a few laughs and completely entertain throughout the entire film. Check your local retailers like Walmart, Redbox, Blockbuster, Netflix, and Bestbuy. I am postive you will not be disappointed, enjoy!
