Writing and developing feature films.

Geography of The Hapless Heart. In development 2007.

Geography Of The Hapless Heart )

I hate women who screech and giggle about men, I hate men who are wishy washy and indecisive and I really hate 'cheerful' people of either sex.

Most of all, I hate reggae

I love wine, artichokes, Bill Hicks and killer eyes

Live life with an intensity that unnerves people.
Follow your passion - wherever it takes you.
Find something - or someone - you'd die for.
Never take second best - in life or love.
And never, EVER dance like there's no-one watching - that's just wrong.

My Interests

I have a fine collection of bird beaks. I favour owls for their wisdom

I'd like to meet:


Maniacs and messiahs.

Music:

Loud.

Movies:

Ozu for his accute sensitivity.

Cassavetes for his insight.

Kieslowski for his sense of magic and fatedness about the world amidst its sometimes awful grittiness.

A lot of European cinema for the quirkier character-driven storytelling.

The more gravitas in film the better.

Comedy if it's very black.

Television:

League of Gentlemen. There are other things ... but pppppffff

Books:

Everything from Hardy to Bukowski to de Botton to real estate ads to Lawrence to Rollins to Wilde and Balzac.

Heroes:


Now and then I encounter someone who makes a the world a little better for them being in it....
