Mark Kermode's Secrets of Cinema: Coming of Age

SYNOPSIS

Mark Kermode continues his fresh and very personal look at the art of cinema by examining the techniques and conventions behind classic film genres, uncovering the ingredients that keep audiences coming back for more. This time Mark explores the genre that captures the joy and pain of growing up: the coming-of-age movie. It is the most universal of all genres, the one everyone can relate to from their own experiences, yet it can also be the most autobiographical and personal.
