Bank of Dave

"Bank of Dave" is a David versus Goliath tale that is particularly relevant today. A small businessman who sells vans in a town located in Northern England wants to help his local community to the point where he sees opening a small local bank as a way to propel his friends and neighbors forward. He is charitable as he is jovial.

But then we we brush up against the powers that be we can invite trouble which is what the subject of this movie is about. In a world where justice for the little person is more necessary than ever, Dave is not opposed to a fight if it means that good will prevail.

Like all small English films there is a subtle humility here that I like. No big Hollywood fanfare but simply everyday people we start to care about.

On Netflix and recommended.
