"Plastic" director, cast, deny glamourising credit card fraud

Picture it: you're young, rich and carefree. What's the catch? You've done it by committing credit card fraud.br br That's the storyline of new British film "Plastic", which premiered in London on Tuesday.br br Based on a true story, the film follows four friends who turn to crime, after facing a job market engulfed in the financial crisis - something BAFTA Rising Star Will Poulter says many might relate to.br br SOUNDBITE: Actor, Will Poulter, saying (English):br br "They're almost slightly the victims of criminal behaviour in a way, and listen I'm not endorsing credit card fraud, but it is interesting to see that approach, and in a way you do - you don't in any way justify it, but I think you can certainly empathise with elements of it."br br Poulter joins Alfie Allen, Ed Speleers, Sebastian de Souza and Emma Rigby in the film.br br That's a cast tipped by many as leading the next generation of British acting talent - according to Hollywood star, Graham McTavish.
