The Quarry Men (2000)

The plot revolves around two guys, Alex and Aidan, who go on holiday to Cornwall, staying in Alex's Uncle's pub. They anticipate two weeks of indulgence of the senses. They want women and beer. This illusion is partially destroyed when, on arrival, they discover that they are to work slavishly for Alex's Uncle. The illusion is shattered, however, when they realise that indulgence of the senses is not an easy process. Their attempts to attract females disintegrate into embarrassing farce. Even the accepted norms of a seaside holiday, such as sun and sea, slip through their fingers with astonishing regularity. Beneath the comic events and the pacy dialogue, is a more profound discussion on the fragility of fidelity and the loss of direction many of us feel during our early twenties, when we realise that after years of struggling for independence and freedom, we aren't quite sure what happens next.
