Bartholomew

About This Movie

So, Bartholomew is this quirky little comedy that really captures that oddball vibe of the 70s, you know? The main character, this socially awkward guy, has a real knack for disco, which feels authentic, not just some gimmick. The pacing is a bit laid-back, almost reflective of those classic coming-of-age stories, but it really works here. There’s something endearing about his desperate attempts to connect with someone who shares his passion. The performances lean more towards the whimsical, and the atmosphere really immerses you in that retro aesthetic. It’s the kind of film where you can see the effort in the practical effects and set design, which gives it a unique charm. Definitely a curiosity piece for fans of offbeat comedies.

Unique take on 70s culture.Interesting character study.Practical effects add charm.
