Quotes
I'm really tired with the idea that 'dark' is adult. If anything, as an adult I've come to cherish really stupid comedy as possibly the highest achievement of mankind. Because it's the thing we do that most points away from death. I'm increasingly unafraid to say thatA Matter of Life and Death (1946)has been replaced as my favourite movie of all time byOne of Our Dinosaurs Is Missing (1975).
