My blurb in Richard Shepard's new director's cut of The Linguini Incident on Blu-ray.

@foxxmetamatic John Foxx themed play park in Oxford.

Up The Creek (Val Guest, 1958) Nautical hijinks as Peter Sellers & chums run a series of schemes out of a mothballed navy destroyer until David Tomlinson turns up & throws a spanner in the works! @RinaldiRobaccia returns to see if it still holds water! spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/yNMT0uuqRLb

@horridcassette @Mbrabs1 I was sat next to David Byrne at this gig. We arrived separately and left separately.

@Mbrabs1 Wow!! I assumed they saw each other's shows given the circumstances, but it's great to have confirmation! Must have been a great show to see

thread of David Bowie and David Byrne/Talking Heads connections because it's important to me

@harbottlestores @JasonBBernard Congratulations to both of you.

@mike_mccahill Sublime storytelling by Bellocchio

On Marco Bellocchio's KIDNAPPED (now showing and streaming) - an extraordinary story, told extraordinarily well: tinyurl.com/332x5xzz

Pre-Order bluray from @diabolikdvd . Here are some of cool special features: Intro by me, Commentary by me/sep track w/Rosanna/Eszter & more , Making of - Feature length doc, photo Gallery, Original Theatrical Version, cool booklet w/ essays by film historian Graham Rinaldi & me

@mike_mccahill The Mia Farrow year would be perfect for him.

@RinaldiRobaccia Oh, I think he could pull off "talented but at least faintly dislikable man who primarily thinks with his dick" *somehow*.

I say this as a fan of Jennifer Lawrence: Jennifer Lawrence is no Ava Gardner.

@TonyEarnshaw The fruits of their labour

Not sure it’s horror per se, but certainly fantastical in every way. A curio in the Burton canon that sits alongside The Medusa Touch, Exorcist II, and Absolution.

@ReelJoBotting @lordbonkers It states 40s, so where are any of the four Will Hay films? My Learned Friend and The Goose Steps Out should be on this list.

@lordbonkers Pfft! Passport to Pimlico no. 6? Should be no. 1. I refuse to read further!

@ReelJoBotting With a soupcon of Graham Moffatt

This month's #ProjectingtheArchive @BFI Southbank is Dear Octopus, Tuesday 20 Feb 6.15. The 1943 adaptation of Dodie Smith's popular play features two of my favourite character actors: Athene Seyler and Kathleen Harrison. Images #BFINationalArchive 1/2

@SteveHyett Don't put your son on the stage, Mr Worthington.

I've been reviewed... 'Steve Hyett adopted the role of Mr Worthington with ease and conviction. He was believable in his characterisation, faultless.' Engage smug mode....smug mode engaged. 😊

@mike_mccahill Glad to see you mentioned McVicar. The memorable apron scene wasn't in the original script, Georgina and director Tom Clegg came up with the idea on the set.

@NeilKBrand @aardman Just watched it at the cinema, for the 2nd time this Christmas. It is wonderful and witty from beginning to end with a stand out turn from Bill Nighy.

@SaltyShep Wonderful news, Richard.

33 yrs ago (when I was 25) I made my 1st film THE LINGUINI INCIDENT (w/ David Bowie, Rosanna Arquette, Eszter Balint, Buck Henry & Marlee Matlin no less). It was a hot mess, recut & dumped. I got the rights back, did a 4k director's cut & ystday signed a bluray deal! Out in '24!

Happy Birthdays to Will Hay (6 December 1888) and Graham Moffatt (6 December 1919). Celebrate in the best possible way with a 35mm screening of Oh, Mr Porter! at 15.15 on Sunday 7 January at the BFI Southbank.

@goonshowpod Goldie Hawn on Sellers & her first day on set. She goes on to recount her trip with Sellers in his Rolls Royce to visit the baboons at Windsor Safari Park.

Booklet essay written by me. McVicar now out on Blu-ray with some bloody good bonus extras.
