- Synopsis:
Back. Further back. Do you look back on the optimism of the late Nineties as a lost golden age? Or do you see it as a period of naivety, delusion and folly? Do you remember it at all? Through the fog of memory, can you be sure? 'I've Been Trying to Tell You', a film by Alasdair McLellan set to the music of Saint Etienne, is immersive and impressionistic, hypnotic in its visual reverie. Filmed in locations across Britain, from Grangemouth to Portmeirion and Southampton, it's about misremembrance and the recent past, youth and sense of place, and where we come from. What was lost and what was never there... Directed by the acclaimed photographer and filmmaker Alasdair McLellan to accompany Saint Etienne's first sample-driven album since their 1993 classic 'So Tough', 'I've Been Trying to Tell You' is a road movie like no other. - Actors:
