Shooters Q&A

The1940s? His Girl Friday (all that politics); My Darling Clementine (all that love); The Third Man (all that human nature). The 21st c?: The Tree of Life; There Will Be Blood; Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind; Pan's Labyrinth; The Big Short; Hell or High Water; Elle. |
| I cried watching |
Dune. I can only take so much pain. |
| I left the cinema during |
Dune. I can take only so much guff (and American accents in a dim future!), despite the brilliant sound and images. |

Lee Marvin. James Caan. Tilda Swinton. Samantha Morton. Ryan Gosling. |

| My desert island discs |
Those in my vertebrae |
| Books I have given my friends |
'A Season in Hell ' - as a loan. 20 years on, he claims it's been his all along. Any reason in hell why I can't borrow it? |
| My death row meal |
A fig - to be devoured as in Women in Love (1969). |
| The best thing I own |
Sanity - in a crazy world. Or am I just deluded? |
