A mixture of Britpop (Franz Ferdinand, Blur, Pulp, Kaiser Chiefs) and 60's (Soul, Beatles, Beach Boys, Elvis, The Kinks etc)
Favourite ever is Citizen Kane. People seem to have forgotten this film, which I think is criminal. Haunting, cold, it's as much a tragedy as it is exceptionally well shot.Fave genre is probably comedy, especially given the diversity involved (everything from Withnail And I to Kung Fu Hustle)
Dip in and out really. Loving Life On Mars at the moment, a bizarre cross between Starsky And Hutch and Back To The Future.Classics- The Simpsons, Sergeant Bilko, Friends, Frasier, Blackadder
I'm always open to reading new books, the last one I read being Arthur Miller's Focus. I love the Victorian Gothic novels, and King Lear is probably my fave bit of literature.
Orson Welles is definitely up there. Read The Road To Xanadu by Simon Callow to find out why.Generally, I admire anyone with talent who works hard. And in the case of Johnny Depp willfully ignores common sense.
