Film enthusiast, occasional obsessive. I’ve got a leaning towards horror and comedy, but I love exploring a great director’s whole body of work, namely Hitchcock, Kurosawa, Wilder, Truffaut, Welles, Kubrick, Lynch, Polanski etc. Any film with a daring and unusual tone and atmosphere will keep me watching, as will anything starring Jack Lemmon, Peter Sellers, James Stewart, Alec Guinness and Peter Cushing.
