Boy misses girl

Simon Morris looks at three apparent romances, which all seem to ignore the usual rules. New Zealand comedy Workmates insists they're just good friends, British music dramedy The Ballad of Wallis Island proves that band breakups aren't good for love, while action thriller Caught Stealing is more interested in money than "boy meets girl". Workmates is the latest from husband and wife team writer-star Sophie Henderson and director Curtis Vowell. Can theatre best mates Lucy - Sophie - and Tom - Matt Whelan, get from the friend-zone to love? The Ballad of Wallis Island is a British charmer about a lonely millionaire who just wants to put his favourite folk duo back together. His solution? A reunion concert for an audience of one. Starring and written by Tim Key (See How They Run), Tom Basden (After Life) with Carey Mulligan (Promising Young Woman). Caught Stealing is a change in pace for ultra-serious director Darren Aronofski (Noah, Black Swan) - an action thriller, starring Austen Butler (Elvis), Matt Smith (Dr Who) and Zoë Kravitzn (The Batman).
