Q1 Which one film would you wish to share with future generations?
Night of the Hunter
USA 1955
Eerie meditation on good and evil starring Robert Mitchum.
As powerful, dark, moody and disturbing today as when it was made 50 years ago. A film that defies categorisation, and one that will hopefully inspire future artists to continue to take cinema in new and exciting directions.
Q2 What excites you about the future of the moving image?
Making films is a much more accessible art form now. The technological developments of recent years have brought filmmaking seriously within the realm of anyone and everyone, and this can only be a good thing in terms of allowing new talent to develop and emerge. The internet then provides the means to show your work to the whole world. It’s an unprecedented situation, and the possibilities are very exciting.
