The artificial foot being prepared for the visual climax of the PETER DENBY torture scene. This foot alone cost over 2k, but was absolutely worth it. An amazing job.

TIM DALKEY LIVES!!

Mark Wilson as 'Tim Dalkey', Francesca Stone as 'Kitten'

Jeremy has come up with a possible way of rescuing the Tim Dalkey scene, by placing the emphasis of the scene on a different theme than it was originally. 

This is fantastic news. The character Tim Dalkey has existed since the original co-op writing sessions of early 2004. At those meetings, myself, Lawrence Scott, Rebecca Denton and Jeremy Henman threw out scene ideas based on the loose framework of the Steve Lynch story. 

Tim Dalkey, a close friend of Steve's wife Olivia, was there from almost Page 1. 

Originally gay and living in an Islington loft (shot in 2004 complete with exposed cock shot) by 2005 he had become virulently heterosexual and was now in a club he owned in Shoreditch. Its a fluid world. 

Both times he was played brilliantly by Mark Wilson, who had just come off a small part in 'Closer'. 

Saving at least part of this scene will also preserve some of Michael Greco's best work on the film.

We're working hard to get back in a couple of scenes we thought we were going to lose for various reasons. This is possibly the most creative part of the entire process - to unpick scenes and recontextualise the same dialogue to work for new motivations and action. 

Fun!!

Ok, we're busy.....

and film's a visual medium right? So more set pics.

Jonas Mortensen and friend: the incomparable Francesca Stone. 

Mark Tierney, Hugh Edwards (Producer), Philip Carson (makeup)

These two pics were taken at the ill-fated Tim Dalkey scene (that character was cut from the film to make way for Colin Salmon's 'Ralph'). It was a terrific shoot, with actor Mark Wilson and a cast of great girls supposedly lounging after a heavy debauch. 

Michael Greco gave some of his best work that day.  In the way of these things, it will never be part of the finished film.
