Sebastiane
"I was rather seduced by
the situation and the location. The characters never really became
real people. It was erotic...it had a vibrancy that was destroyed
by it's accademic seriousness." Gay News 23/02/79 |

Jubilee
"It's a punk movie and so it has...immediacy
and a lack of finish. I didn't want it to be perfect."
"(it's) a cabarate, it's Dada, it's a docustated fanzine...it's
a protest" Gay News 23/02/79

Tempest
"It was his (Shakespeare's) last acknowleged
play and it has enormous scope for a film fantasy, with level apon
level of meaning."
"Everytime I look at the play it's different. I've have to
be much more controlled than I was in Jubilee."
"I've never seen The Tempest. Never! I read it ofcourse...about
a hundred times since 1960. It's like a drug for me." Evening
News, 06/07/79

Last of England
"It's for everyone potentially. It is
an open ended film, therefore it doesn't impose a narrative so your
not meant to jump here or climb there or do anything in particular.
It is for people to scan within those images anything they particularily
want to do. I hope that it is an egalitarian film in that sense."
