About Everybody's Talking About Jamie
Inspired by true events, Everybody's Talking About Jamie follows Jamie New (Max Harwood), a teenager from Sheffield, who dreams of life on stage. While his classmates plan their futures following graduation, Jamie contemplates revealing his secret career ambition to become a fierce and proud drag queen. His best friend Pritti (Lauren Patel) and his loving mum (Sarah Lancashire) shower him with endless love and support, while local drag legend Miss Loco Chanelle (Richard E. Grant) mentors him toward his debut stage performance.
Jamie also has to contend with an unsupportive father (Ralph Ineson), an uninspired careers advisor (Sharon Horgan), and some ignorant school kids who attempt to rain on his sensational parade. In rousing and colorful musical numbers, Jamie and his community inspire one another to overcome prejudice, be more accepting, and step out of the darkness into the spotlight.

My Review
I truly enjoyed the movie and the overarching message of diversity, acceptance, and inclusion. It is an excellent adaptation of the hit stage musical and fans of the musical will love the movie, as well as newcomers, seeing Jamie New's story for the first time.
It is hard to believe this is Max Harwood's first movie. Ever. His talent is truly amazing and award-worthy. A star was born in this film.
Everybody's Talking About Jamie is fun, heartwarming, and has a great soundtrack. I highly recommend this movie.
