It Is of Eden I Was Dreaming
Director
This film is an evocation of the life of the 19th century French poet Arthur Rimbaud, based on a series of paintings by Sidney Nolan. Rimbaud was always one of Nolan’s heroes. Over the years he painted many pictures of the poet. The famous artist responded enthusiastically to a suggestion by an Australian scriptwriter for a film about Rimbaud and he produced 31 large new paintings for this film together with many small crayon drawings. These works, interwoven with a wealth of drawings paintings, photographs and documents from the Louvre, the French National Library and the Rimbaud Museum at Charleville, have been combined in a filmic evocation of one of France’s most extraordinary writers.

E Agora Algo Completamente Diferente
Director of Photography
Monty Python em "E Agora Algo Completamente Diferente" é uma miscelânea de excertos completamente loucos e atrevidos da lendária série de televisão da BBC "Monty Python's Flying Circus", que é tida como um marco histórico da comédia britânica. Considerado o primeira longa-metragem dos Monty Python, esta antologia inclui pontos altos como, por exemplo, "Como não se deixar ver" no qual os participantes são severamente punidos por serem apanhados, bem como um conselheiro matrimonial que faz amor com a mulher do paciente, ou um contador que quer ser domador de leões, além de sequências divertidíssimas como a do papagaio morto e a do programa de televisão "Chantagem" que convida os espectadores a enviarem dinheiro para evitar escândalos. "E Agora Algo Completamente Diferente" é um filme obrigatório para os fãs dos Monty Python e para todos que gostam do humor excêntrico e negro dos britânicos.
