This is quite simply the best film I have ever seen. If you're a middle aged old chump like me but want to feel what it was like to be 20 again just watch this and savour the incredible cast chemistry, the soundtrack and fall in love with Emily Browning in her finest role. It's touching, gentle, poignant, longing, funny and quirky and has the joie de vivre that is arguably only possible when you are 20 ish. It's a cinematic masterpiece of adolescent longing, emotional challenges and unrequited love.
***** Funny thing, it's actually set in the time where that wasn't called indie/hipster, because there were no cd players and that was how everyone dressed. Just sayin'.
stuart murdoch penned the film/soundtrack to include ''i'll have to dance with cassie'' etc waaaay before they cast hannah murray, 2004ish I think, it's just an odd coincidence :3
I seriously can not get over this movie. It's been 10 years and I am still listening to God Help The Girl's soundtrack. In fact, I can still see the whole scene in my head. this movie is definitely underrated, but to be frank, it's one of my favorite movies. Thank u for being a part of my teenage years...
I love this comment section, this has been my confort and favourite movie since it came out, it makes me feel sad yet happy, it makes me sing and be quiet when necesary, it explores many things that were relevant for me back then and some other that are relevant for me now. Because of this movie i started to investigate about glasgow,then Edimburgh then finally fell in love with all Scotland. Its history and architechture are mesmerizing and this soundtrack just sounds like a whole life time. Its about to be 10 years, i hope Murdoch knows his little project is way more than just an indie film but a small piece of peace for us!!!
Not only does it have Olly Alexander in it Not only does it have Hannah Murray in it Not only does it have Emily Browning in it It has Olly Alexander, Hannah Murray AND Emily Browning in it! #faints
I adore Emily Browning and have since she was in Ghost Ship but Plush, Sleeping Beauty, and Sucker Punch were tough to get through because they were so dark and heavy and depressing. This just looks like it's good old fashioned light-hearted fun. I wish it was going to get a release because I want to see it. Even on Netflix or something would be cool.
i grew up on belle and sebastian and god help the girl and my mum wittering on about this film all the time and recently i watched all of skins at once and i thought i recognised cassie from somewhere, didnt think it would bring me back to the nostaligia realm jesus christ
Can anyone actually comment about the content of the movie rather than talking about Cassie or skins or whatever it is, like give me a rating or what you thought of the movie or something. Convince me to watch it or to not watch it.
Watch it. I'm sort of biased (I'm crazy about the first 3 B&S records) but at the same time I hate musicals. This one however, was quite enjoyable. (Although at this point pretty sure you watched it already)
I already love Emily Browning, Olly Alexander and Hannah Murray,British comedy-romances, catchy tunes ... so I know I will absolutely adore this film when I see it.
Violet Baudelaire was already somewhat too old to play the kind of role in this film. She tried too hard to look cute. A girl STARTING a band in her late twenties. God help us!
my favourite movie of all time, seen it more than 10 times and i don't care if this is hipster or if hannah murray's a cassie again i love this movie so so so so so so so so much and the music AH ♥♥♥♥
I find it tragic that this movie went so under the radar and bombed so hard. It really is a cute little masterpiece with some phenomenal acting, lovable characters and awesome songs. NOTE: This movie made back 1/10 it's budget wheras Battleship made $303 million. Seriously? You guys ignored this but paid to see Battleship? Wow. Words escape me.
People might confuse this movie with Skins Pure but God Help the Girl was actually shot in summer 2012 just before Skins Pure ! That's funny that Olly Alexander finally joined Hannah Murray for Skins !
I NEED TO WATCH THIS IT HAS FLIPPING OLLY ALEXANDER IN IT WHO IS MY FAVORITEST PERSON IN THE UNIVERSE I NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEARS AND YEARS!!!!!
I don't see the point in labeling this as a "hipster" film. The only thing I feel that matters is if it's good. And I thought it was good, nothing special but a good movie to just throw on and watch.
Which one? You can hear three in the trailer. If you are looking for the last song, this is: God Help The Girl (Film Cast Formation, from the Movie Soundtrack) - God Help The Girl.
Why is it that almost everything British that Hannah Murray has been in has some kind of scene where she is looking down on the city from a park on a big hill?

Where did you watch it. I haven’t seen it anywhere
This movie couldn't be more indie-looking if it had a hand-drawn logo.
Hahaaha, damn thanks. I thought I was the only one feeling that. Good comment.
I think the fact that the film was directed by one of the main cult leaders of indie pop music explains a lot about it. :P
***** Funny thing, it's actually set in the time where that wasn't called indie/hipster, because there were no cd players and that was how everyone dressed. Just sayin'.
***** I'm pretty sure it's set in an earlier time....
***** Lol ok...I will too, I think
"calmly swim back... here is the ... the... safeness" me as a lifeguard
You need jisoos
God, they couldn't find another name for Hannah Murray that isn't Cassie
have you ever considered it might have been done on purpose, like a sort of shout out to the actress or something ?
Well she is Gilly on Game of Thrones?

You beat me to the comment :P
100fates still sounds -eee

Ohhhhh so this is what Cassie did when she left Sid to go to Scotland for a few weeks!! Now I get it
Not only does it have Olly Alexander in it
Not only does it have Hannah Murray in it
Not only does it have Emily Browning in it
It has Olly Alexander, Hannah Murray AND Emily Browning in it! #faints
Moral of the story: Nothing cures an eating disorder like a musical montage.
LMFAOOOOOOOOOO
PLZ
this is my story, this is my soul:
Had to watch this again for Olly Alexander. I had no idea he was the lead of Years & Years..
Samee
Christine Romea same!!! I saw a video of Years & Years and thought that guy is so familiar!
omg i didn’t even recognize that was him
he’s also in skins pure with cassie:)
Cass from skins, wes Anderson producer and written by the belle and Sebastian singer, this is my kind of movie
Lola Lea wait, this is a wes anderson movie?
I love this movie! Its so sad and at the same time so happy. And i never saw a cast with so much chemistry
No way...Hannah Murray's character is called Cassie again? casting directors I see what you did there
lol she should just change her name; it suits her
I love it
Also, Cassie and (the character played by Olly Alexander) have some story between them as well, If I recall correctly.
I AM ACTUALLY A LIFEGUARD AND I AM DOING THIS FOR ALL THE TIME I AM ONE.
'Here is the...safeness'
DEAD
same
I can't stop watching this movie! I am hopelessly obsess with this movie...and the music is so perfect!
The actress of Cassie is Cassie in skins mind = blown 💥
and game of thrones
Heat Karma
cassie from skins is in game of thrones? what, when, no, are you high?? ahhhh i love her so
i guess u don't watch it
Troy Thompson ya she's in game of thrones
who is she in GOT? HiuruTM
I adore Emily Browning and have since she was in Ghost Ship but Plush, Sleeping Beauty, and Sucker Punch were tough to get through because they were so dark and heavy and depressing.
This just looks like it's good old fashioned light-hearted fun. I wish it was going to get a release because I want to see it. Even on Netflix or something would be cool.
It is on netflix now :)
Thanks, cant get Netflix in Australia yet.
A very limited version but yes.
Viooz, google it. Free movies. Lots of pop-up adds but totally worth free streaming, no sign up or any such shit.
NOW WE KNOW WHAT CASSIE BEEN UP TO AFTER LEAVING SID
i grew up on belle and sebastian and god help the girl and my mum wittering on about this film all the time and recently i watched all of skins at once and i thought i recognised cassie from somewhere, didnt think it would bring me back to the nostaligia realm jesus christ
Ridiculously charming cast but the trailer makes it seem a lot more lively and fun than it really is.
this flick is the definition of a feel good movie
Can anyone actually comment about the content of the movie rather than talking about Cassie or skins or whatever it is, like give me a rating or what you thought of the movie or something. Convince me to watch it or to not watch it.
+Carley Amen !
+Carley one of my favourite movies and it has a okay/ good story line and deals with anorexia and depresion
Ed Perry Thanks! I ended up watching it, and it was alright
Watch it. I'm sort of biased (I'm crazy about the first 3 B&S records) but at the same time I hate musicals. This one however, was quite enjoyable. (Although at this point pretty sure you watched it already)
Cassie and Jakob from Skins. Olly and Emily from music video "Years&Years - Take Shelter". Fortuity? I don't think so :D
Agnieszka Agnes OMG! OK, this is just perfect...
+Agnieszka Agnes Haha the reason I found this film!! Guess I'm not the only one
I've watched this movie for a million times! So good...
Emily B + 60s vibe + cool filter + geek + music = a must watch.
I already love Emily Browning, Olly Alexander and Hannah Murray,British comedy-romances, catchy tunes ... so I know I will absolutely adore this film when I see it.
God help Violet Baudelaire. Since when did Violet become a hipster lol? :V
this is my favorite comment
I love this comment. seriously.
Can you blame her after all the crap she went through, living in a world full of idiots and stalked by a psycho
Violet Baudelaire was already somewhat too old to play the kind of role in this film. She tried too hard to look cute. A girl STARTING a band in her late twenties. God help us!
It has the potential to become one of my favorite films ever!
I really loved this film.The songs were great.
i trully wish that movie was like 1727172 hours
It's cool bc Olly actually is in a band now and it's very AMAZING
OHMYGOD! SKINS PURE!
isn't that guy the creepy photographer, this is basically a spin-off-spin-off movie!
-
"Calmly swim back...here is the safeness!" 😂🏊

I find it tragic that this movie went so under the radar and bombed so hard. It really is a cute little masterpiece with some phenomenal acting, lovable characters and awesome songs.

This film is wondrous.
I saw this at the 2014 SXSW and may i say this movie is amazing!
Where can I watch this?!?!
I knew it! I saw a glimpse of Pierre Boulanger in the trailer!
What is the name of the individual play equipment the girl was playing on at 0:55?
Gilly?!

mariaarakal You mean Cassie
Martin Parobek Well actually no. Hannah Murray plays Gilly in GoT. She has more than Skin in her career

mariaarakal Holy crap is it her? I thought it was and was about to google it to check lol.

Can anyone tell me the name of the first song in the trailer
Perfection as a hipster by God help the girl
@@jeffreydonovan9356 Thanks 👍
Still looks fantastic, I like movies with great soundtracks, and this movie looks no different.
People might confuse this movie with Skins Pure but God Help the Girl was actually shot in summer 2012 just before Skins Pure ! That's funny that Olly Alexander finally joined Hannah Murray for Skins !
I NEED TO WATCH THIS IT HAS FLIPPING OLLY ALEXANDER IN IT WHO IS MY FAVORITEST PERSON IN THE UNIVERSE I NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEARS AND YEARS!!!!!

OH MY GOD I CAN'T WAIT!!!
Why is it that almost everything British that Hannah Murray has been in has some kind of scene where she is looking down on the city from a park on a big hill?
I love Olly soooooo much ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
