(apologies if fixtures)

The world just lost an amazing film maker with an extrordinary body of work to his credit. Those of us of a certain age were priviliged to tune in and turn on to a wondrous body of work; Don't Look Now, Walkabout, The Man Who Fell To Earth, Performance, to name but a few. Was years, if not decades, ahead of his time in terms of techique and challenging but rewarding cinema.

RIP.

Walkabout and Don’t Look Now in particular are magnificent landmarks in film history. RIP, and what a legacy.
