This was a remarkable story. I adore this man's work - Dead Man's Shoes and This Is England are obvious classics, but The Virtues is also a remarkable TV show. Truly beautiful. Seeing this man tell his story like this was inspiring, especially considering his humble beginnings. When he gets emotional at 5:05, it cuts. Just lovely. I'm so grateful this video got posted!
I remember listening to Mark Kermode talk about what your first cinema experience was, and I was similar to Shane really, my first cinema experience was Bambi or Snow White I think that I remember (both reruns, I'm not that old). I mainly watched action oriented Hollywood films on the TV, it wasn't until I stayed up late watching Channel 4 that I caught Onibaba and I started to view cinema more as an art form, and I became more attracted to that aspect of it, and that wasn't until my teens I think.
Hey Shane!!!,”what about a British “kinda “rocky remake..about a boy from murther Tydfil in wales with a dream..who ends up winning a competition or something to fight the heavyweight champion off the world..a true British action boxing drama..done the British way..with a twist of lemon..wanna script …lol ?
So much love and respect for Mr Shane Meadows ❤️
