Film Writing
I started writing about film while at university back in the early 90s and eventually graduated to paid film reviews for a handful of magazines and online publications which lead to a press pass and a few hundred coffee and wine fuelled movies in Soho’s legendary screening rooms.
I’ve never attempted to gather all that stuff in one place before and I’ve forgotten half the things I wrote but as I stumble across them I’ll archive them here. Please note that I’m not re-editing any of it so if it’s outdated (or problematic) blame it on the younger, dumber version of me. If it’s being copied over from an ancient digital format then I’ll try my best to keep the original, probably pixelated, images that accompanied it.
I’m sure some of it will be utter bollocks and the early stuff is rather dry and academic, but if nothing else this nonsense lead to me hanging out with Spielberg in Cannes so it wasn’t completely worthless…
