soulboy (2010)

aka Souled Out.
"Why would I stop you?"
Joe (Martin Compston) becomes fixated on Jane (Nichola Burley), who loves soul. So to impress her he starts to frequent and get into the scene. Thankfully Mandy (Felicity Jones) is there to help him get the basic moves down and what to listen to.
Boy meets girl, and takes time to realise that he's fixated on the wrong girl for him. A standard formula, but played well, with touches of comedy and pathos. This lacks the feel and detail for the scene that Elaine Constantine's film does, but has more of a feel good factor about it.
