Well, well… I don’t like web designing for others neither, but since you’d like to SHOOT and CUT I suggest you try hunting a bit. Shoot a deer and… cut it! I see you are already nicely equipped 🙂
OK, regarding the gun… since I’m from the country which has seen a 5 year long war not so long ago… your scenes brought back some nasty memories… so I’ll comment no more… please, all of you watching – stay away from any kind of weapons, they never bring any good. And NEVER EVER point a gun in you, even if you are sure there are no bullets in it.
Yeah, it was weird to find it and to remember a time when I was full of a sort of unreal movie-obsessed teenage naivety. It’s not a real gun, of course – you can’t get them here – just a blank firing replica. Which made me even more stupid for carrying it round… only now can I imagine the scene if I *had* been mugged, which of course I never was. Red light district turned out to be the safest place in Birmingham – the crims were busy in the richer parts of town 😉
Anyway, I quite liked that I got cut off halfway through by my phone cutting out and my girls returning – I was about to go on to talk about gun control and gun crime here… serendipitous editing that lent the whole thing a totally different tone from what I started off with, and made me look like some kind of gun nut. When actually, 10-15 years later – as my sis quotes above – the Mahatma is my main man.
Heh. When I saw the gun on the table I thought, “oooo! this is about to get a little surreal”. I imagined a midget walking in the room. I imagined a dream sequence. I imagined many many things…
glad the time out came – seeing someone i love so much point even a toy gun down his throat is not a joyous sight! why cant you have been influenced by christian slater as will scarlet instead of some total psycho!!!??? happy landings, increase the peace…. x
i too though we were headed for something scripted when the gun came out. you know what they say, show a gun in act one, and it is going to go off in act three. i’m not disappointed, i liked where it went.
You mad bastard Rupert. And I say that with the greatest of respect, and toungue firmly in cheek. When you panned over the kitchen table and we saw the gun it was a total trip. If you left it like that, unexplained, it would have been totally hilarious to freak everyone out. I love how having a girlfriend living in a red light district “sounded bad”, as if any of the rest of that scene SOUNDED GOOD!!
BE the change you wish to see in this world (and dont let your tea stew in the process)
Have a wicked, wild, awesome and fun filled holiday!

Then, your life intervened.
Real life. It aint half bad 🙂
For what it’s worth, I can easily see you in the roll Christian Slater played in Heathers. But only as an actor, not in real life.
