Murray Martin : I would defend Billy Elliot publicly in that at least it’s a film about working-class life and that’s the way it should be, because the majority of people who go to films are working-class people and they should at least have films about their lives.
Murray Martin : That’s not to say the artist shouldn’t be critical — he’s saying that self-realisation, self-knowledge is crucial, but the artist can help in that process by the way he or she reflects or comments on what they’ve seen.
Neil Young : You show the films to local audiences in the communities — is this a form of test screening, so you go and tweak it depending on their responses about whether it’s too slow, or whatever.
