Looking for Eric

While a lonely, depressed, guilt-ridden, divorced British postman (Steve Evets) in Manchester tries to get his life back together through lively, imaginary discussions with his advice-spewing soccer idol (Eric Cantona) and then tries to reconnect with his first wife (Stephanie Bishop) whom he abandoned 30 years earlier along with their daughter (Lucy-Jo Hudson) in this low-key, charming, quirky, uneven 2009 comedy, he ends up gathering his steadfast mates (Des Sharples, Greg Cook, Johnny Travis, Justin Moorhouse, et al.) beside him to help keep his reckless, lazy teenage stepsons (Gerard Kearns and Stefan Gumbs) safe from a gun-caring hoodlum.
