Journey of No Return
Conductor
A woman with ‘no name and no country’ in search of a sense of belonging. Asked to write a script about her own experience, she constructs an ‘autobiography’ which is partly fiction. A photographer – who has never touched a camera. A peep-show girl who has never worked in one. A screenwriter who has never written dialogue. Meanwhile, her unsent letters to her father echo the questions every migrant is asked: ‘Why are you here?’ and ‘When are you going back?’ The film is a critique of certain aspects of British culture & addresses crises of identity.
The Grass Arena
Kaufman

На грани безумия
Coroner
Вольная экранизация повести Роберта Луиса Стивенсона «Доктор Джекилл и мистер Хайд». Режиссер, как почти все его предшественники, обращавшиеся к известной книге Стивенсона, поручил одному и тому же актеру двойную главную роль — и Энтони Перкинс сыграл то, что от него требовалось. Самое любопытное, пожалуй, то, что патологическим извращенцем в его интерпретации стал не только Джек Хайд, убийца проституток, но и доктор Генри Джекилл, вполне респектабельный гражданин общества.
