Eve is a catastrophe—low on self-esteem but high on fantasy, especially when it comes to music. Over the course of one Glasgow summer, she meets two similarly rootless souls: posh Cass and fastidious James, and together they form a group.

Reviews
|
Village Voice -
Browning captures Eve's weariness and enthusiasm, and her lovely voice and crisp delivery gives Murdoch's labored lyrics a vulnerable immediacy.
|
|
IndieWire -
God Help the Girl doesn’t quite succeed in convincing the viewer to toss conventional character development out the window, it still has its moments.
|
|
Film.com -
Murdoch’s film is fraught with ambition and aspiration, but a little thin on talent and technique.
|
|
The Guardian -
God Help the Girl comes loose and easy, verging on the slipshod. It's warm and generous, verging on the sentimental; a film that crystallises the best and worst of Belle and Sebastian's songwriting skills.
|
|
Empire -
As Marmite-y as Stuart Murdoch's music, you'll find it either winningly charming or irritatingly fey. Either way, its warmth shines through.
