This may not effect all of you, but Tartan Films have just gone bust.  For the past few years they’ve distributed some great films and documentaries from around the world that most of us in the UK wouldn’t have had the chance to see otherwise.
Hopefully someone else will pick up their mantle.

I prefer red biros. If you write notes to people in red ink it means you want to kill them.

The main issue: where is the archive going? Please, not the Weinstein family…
