Have you seen this? I haven’t seen it but I would like to, the trailer, this review and even the website make me want to. Plus Charlie Kaufman films are always interesting…and at least I’ve learnt a new word.

It was a double bill round at my bit last night of Rushmore and The Squid Versus the Whale…I think Rushmore edged it.

Again with Scottish cinema (or at least Scottish locations) in mind, I’ve been digging through scotlandthemovie.com and there’s some great info if you’re looking to find the filming locations of Highlander, Young Adam, The Wicker Man or even that creepy house from The Last Great Wilderness which as it turns out I’ve cycled past without even knowing…

It’s funny the things that stay with you and with the Scottish tour coming up it’s easy to find yourself thinking about Highlander again. Then you find the video for Princes Of The Universe by Queen and you wonder what the hell Freddie was thinking and how terrible the special effects now look. There’s a great review over at Not coming to a theater near you that sums it all up far better than i ever could.

A wee movie i made for an exhibition at the GRV in Edinburgh last year. The more observant of you will notice that it was a rare sunny day in beautiful Fife so i had to shut the curtains half way through…which just goes shows how long it took to do.
