Back from an extended weekend in Beerland.
As usual, plenty of chips, chocolate, alcoholic drinks and mayo.
Here, rain for the first time in a long while.
I came back to a South Bank Show featuring the gorgeous Ewan McGregor, clever and articulate, and so, so cheeky. The program briefly ran through McGregor's career and largely overlooked all the tabloid gossip, which was nice. Interesting was also the differences between McGregor's point of view and Danny Boyle's, with regards to how Trainspotting was shot and the entire The Beach bruhaha-thing. It was furthermore interesting to compare Boyle's excitement about turning Trainspotting sequel Porno into a film with McGregor pretty much rejecting to reprise the part of Renton. So no film sequel there, I presume, since Boyle stated that the film will only be made with the original cast. I hope he stands by his word.
Exactly one month 'till the London Film Festival kicks off. I count my pennies and try to be strategic in my planning. Nothing can be left to chance. I'm sharpening my elbows.
