Bleach!    Bleach!

This is a great little film/video made in Chorlton for only twelve quid! It was written by a great character called Leon Horton. Leon had seen me as Lenny in The Homecoming at the Library Theatre in Manchester. Apparently, he saw me in a pub on the piss with Lemn Sissay, and was too afraid to say hello. Instead, he sat nearby with his friends and started discussing Pinter and Beckett in a loud voice, hoping to draw my attention. It worked, and we are now very good friends. This film went down a storm at the Kino Film Festival, in Manchester, as well as the Berlin Kinofilm. Leon described it as a film about murder and marigold gloves, which pretty much sums it up. Bleach!

Bleach!

I wrote the script for this one Sunday afternoon after Krishna Stott had told me that he’d met a submariner who said he masturbated to the shipping forecast to keep himself sane. I intended it to be a black comedy piece of existentialism about the fundamental fears of man to have conviction in his ideas. You’ll either see that or see it as a film about two blokes in a sub; one of whom wanks a lot.
