Fun stuff:

Films I wish I had made:

High Noon, Delicatessen, A Matter Of Life And Death, Swingers, Grosse Pointe Blank, The Big Lebowski, Five Easy Pieces, Rushmore, Heat, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, Casablanca, All Or Nothing.

I cried watching:

Can't remember which ones, but there's a lot. Definitely All Or Nothing, which is really really beautiful.

I left the cinema during:

Butterflies (short film now a Keane music video) - having seen it already I really couldn't face watching it again.

Directors I love:

Michael Mann, Mike Leigh, Jean-Pierre Jeunet, the Coens, Shane Meadows, Lynne Ramsay, Wes Anderson, Powell and Pressburger.

Actors I admire:

Timothy Spall, Carl Pizzie, John Simm, Kelly MacDonald, Paddy Considine.

My desert island discs:

London Calling, Tribe Called Quest Anthology, Special Needs, Kish Kash, Sunshine Hit Me, how many am I supposed to have?

Books I have given my friends:

The Thin Red Line which I gave to Adam and he lost, some cinematography one I gave to Oli and both of them bought another copy to give me back but I ain't seen 'em.

My death row meal:

Whatever I want to eat on that day. Depends.

The best thing I own:

The Hammond Organ Don gave me.
