Anuvahood (2011)

cringe-comedy goldBritish hood satiredelusional protagonist energy

Overview

Comedy

Kenneth (who likes to call himself Kay) begins to realise he's just another wannabe bad boy... even less than a loser in fact. After quitting his job at Laimsbury's, Kay vows to become a respected gangster... or cry trying. A pulls-no-punches, coming-of-age story, centering on one directionless hopeless "shotter", who finds his true worth in the face of urban adversity.

Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

The title parodies 'Anuvahood' as both 'another hood' film and UK slang pronunciation, directly spoofing Noel Clarke's 'Kidulthood' and 'Adulthood' trilogy that dominated late-2000s British cinema.

Insight

Adam Deacon co-wrote and co-directed this after playing the comic relief Jay in those same 'Hood' films—making this essentially a 90-minute response to his own breakout role.
