I’m a word freak. I like words. I’ve always compared writing to music. That’s the way I feel about good paragraphs. When it really works, it’s like music.

Here's @JnnyG working at La Fabrique in France on A Moon Shaped Pool, surrounded by 1000s of albums donated from the estate of a famous French DJ. Behind him are the remnants of the floor of the old water mill, where plants were ground down to dye tunics for Napoleon's soldiers.

TRY-AD, written & directed by Tania-Morgan Smith, will be having its first screening next Saturday at @CambJunction followed by a Q&A, before heading on to festivals, including @LSFF! #IndieFilm #LSFF

So often, below the word spoken, is the thing known and unspoken.

No explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant. . .

This picture was a magical trip to work on. Beautiful story, exciting cast, terrific crew. A film with heart, written & directed by @ChristovShow (Swynnerton Pictures). Releasing soon. @TeddyTrapMedia #IndieFilm #Cinema #HereComesTheDuke
