reunion

If you've never see Withnail and I, you should. Great flick. One of those independent, underground, cult films about slightly crazed debauchery with then-unknown actors (Richard E Grant, Paul McGann) and a first-time director (Bruce Robinson). Seems like it all shouldn't have worked, but it did. Something charming about roughness and inexperience and wobbliness and too-dark scenes.

BBC4 is running a chat with the writer/director and the actors on the 20th anniversary of the film's release. It's only up for a week.

P.S. Terry Pratchett's Mort is still available for listening on BBC7. It's a four-part series, and another Discword favorite. (Scroll down to M) I'd have to do a bit of chronology research to find out which came first - Terry Pratchett's version of Death or Neil Gaiman's version. They share a few similar characteristics. Don't tell anyone, but I while I like Terry Pratchett's version, Neil Gaiman's version comes out a little bit ahead for me, as far as favoritism goes.
