Hi, I am a filmmaker and run a non-profit theatre in New Orleans. I have been attending the Toronto Film Festival every year since 1990. Well, I missed last year because of Hurricane Katrina. I have been a fan of your work for years ever since we screened your film TwentyFourSeven. Your film Room For Romeo Brass was my favorite film of the festival that year. I saw This Is England in Toronto at the first public screening at the Varsity 8. The film blew me away so much, I saw it again the next day in the press/industry screening with a group of my fellow programmers whom I told had to see your film at the ROM. Seeing the same film twice at the same festival is something I have only done twice before ( Guy Maddin's Archangel and Christoph Ruggia's Les Diables). Needless to sat, it was my favorite film of this year's festival as well. I truly hope you get picked up for distribution in the U.S. I really want to book it. If you are coming to the U.S. and would ever like to come to New Orleans for a Retrospective of your films. We would love to have you.

Welcome to the site FatBoy. It's always great to get some more over-seas visitors to the site.
It's cool that you've been following Shane's work... and were lucky enough to see 24/7 in a cinema!

Not a new member but I've been away from the forum for a bit doing my own. But today I am born again. Good idea to do this board Dave, you are an entrepreneur.
Hello all.

Good idea to do this board Dave, you are an entrepreneur. Can't take credit for this idea. I'm sure other people mentioned it in the past, including new-comers to the site who mentioned that there was nowhere to introduce themselves.

Hi, I've just joined this forum after watching "Once Upon A Time In The Midlands" and recognising one the locations ( the bandstand scenes ) as just around the corner from my house - "Victoria Park" in "Ilkeston" in Derbyshire.

Hey there Thribb... welcome to the site. If the bandstand is round the corner from where you live, I wonder if there are other locations nearby too??

Dave and Thribb - nope, no other locations near to the bandstand - I think on that day we did some driving stuff on the A610 near Ikea, and the interior of Charlie's flat was a studio build, also near Ikea. Virtually everything else was in Carlton and Gedling, on the east side of Notts.

Hello Ladies and Gents.......
I'm a massive Shane Meadows fan and was very glad to stumble across this site and find so many people with a like mind. As I come from Uttoxeter I take a particular interest in the stuff Shane does - and I've even met the man a long time ago in town - which was before I ever saw a film of his to be honest.
Anyway, I'm much more up to speed with his stuff nowadays and I've gotta give credit to Shane as probably the most talanted man to come out of Uttoxeter, bar rockin johnny austin......
Keep up the good work youth....
