MONACO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2014
I attended my first film awards this weekend. It was held in Monte Carlo and it is also the first time I have been there. It was a three day event and I watched lots of other films. There were parties and meet and greet things to go to and I met a lot of people from all over the world. There were contributors from China and Iran as well as European entries.
Our film LADYLUCK is based on DH Lawrence’s – The Rocking Horse Winner and was directed by Jo Lewis of Breakneck Films. I play the son of the family who tries his best to make his mother happy. Abigail Titmuss plays my mother, Hester and Tav MacDougall played Richard, my Dad. Also appearing were Maurice Byrne as Basset and Richard Strange as my uncle Oscar.
I’m pleased to say that we won! I won THE BEST NEWCOMER AWARD 2014
