I got a prize through the post! I had no idea. Silver I cannot believe it! For my 'Marmalade with a Twist' Did lots of people get silver, or am I the only one ? I am so happy! @MarmaladeAwards

Further brilliant work on The Writing Eye: a course I'm running on photo and film-poetry. https://t.co/PAEJSo4zRp Made this week in response to the theme of OF, poems made of photos. Remarkable from @ailsaholland @fierydes@berlinreified@dan_weldon
@afterglow2046@dan_weldon@GalwayFilm@BernardJMRose@mcseamus@markcousinsfilm@HighSierraMan I know I'm preaching to the Nic Choir here, but have u noticed how many major crix have never seen most of Nic's films & seem to have no problem admitting this while dismissing films they've never seen? Try to imagine this mindset vis a vis Kubrick, Scorsese et al.
@dan_weldon@GalwayFilm@HighSierraMan@BernardJMRose@mcseamus@markcousinsfilm I'm so glad Roeg got to make this film. You look at the filmographies of so many visionary directors (Michael Powell, David Lean) & for the last decades of their lives, there's nothing, or almost nothing, just the struggle.
But Nic got to make one last film his way.
I shouldn't do this (but grief hightens the senses)... by chance I sat next to Xan on a plane on my way to screen #puffball. I told Nic #Roeg, he laughed and quoted Oscar Wilde (you know the one)... he'd find the Merlin comment even funnier. https://t.co/3IZnJnAoNE
An Appreciation of Nicolas Roeg: #Butbutbut... If you stop watching Roeg in 80 you miss: Puffball, Full Body Massage, Two Deaths, Cold Heaven, Witches, Track 29, Castaway, Insignificance, Eureka, virtually all essential cinema & all quintessential Roeg. https://t.co/EZIrLVI8wu

I interviewed @alicelowe today at @ASFFest@YorkTheatre She exudes a life force. A major director in the making. Lovely audience too. Intelligent questions. Lovely atmosphere. Thank you.
