Description

A world first - at 6pm on September 5th 2003, 'This is Not a Love Song' was the world's first feature film to be released simultaneously online and in cinemas, with over 100K hits on its 'opening weekend'. Now, here is the DVD full of great insight into the making of this groundbreaking film - written by Simon Beaufoy of 'The Full Monty' fame and directed by Billie Eltringham ('The Darkest Light').

Spike (Michael Colgan) and Heaton (Kenny Glenaan) are the unlikeliest pair: two loners who have found each other. Taciturn, competent, unreadable, Heaton is someone we are instinctively afraid of. In contrast, his side-kick Spike is a manic, child-like, unstoppable, someone we are instinctively afraid for.

When Spike commits a terrible crime, Heaton decides to stand by him - an act of astonishing, almost foolhardy loyalty. There begins a chase across a vast Northern landscape of moors, rivers and dark woods, the increasingly exhausted fugitives being hunted not by the police but by a posse of farmers intent on revenge. As exhaustion and hunger take hold, Heaton injures his leg and the roles are reversed. Suddenly Heaton needs Spike's loyalty. As the farmers close in, Spike is forced to decide whether to stand by his wounded friend or run for the safety of the city.

No ordinary chase film, This is Not a Love Story is a love story trapped inside the body of a thriller.
