There's no way in hell I can give this a sensible ranking, I'm too smitten with Jessica Brown-Findlay.

A little stunner of a British film which depicts real life in a very authentic yet cinematic way. There's loads of emotion and peoples' feelings getting trampled on, all revolving around a tour de force performance by Jessica Brown Findlay. Amazingly, the contest of "which young actress is hotter?" takes a back seat to the fascinating family relationships and coming-of-age shenanigans which propel the story. Excellent direction from MacCormick makes this one of the best hidden gems of 2011.

"Yes, the title of Albatross is a metaphor. In fact, the eponymous bird shows up not as a figurative chokehold around the neck of simply one character, but at least three." - Andrew Schenker
