The Stirrer Xmas Movie

EAT IN (Mark Locke)

25-12-2007

Fed up of turkey already? Then let Tamworth film-maker Mark Locke entice you to a Christmas curry with a difference. But be warned - his debut short won't be to everyone's taste.

This little beauty was made in 1997, but in our opinion hasn't dated at all.

It was Mark's calling card and allowed him to jemmy open the door to feature length direction. His movie Crust in 2001 tells the story of three men and a giant boxing shrimp who they find washed up on the shores of Blighty.

The film wasn't a box-office hit, but has since become a cult classic.

Mark has also directed numerous pop videos, for the likes of US screwball Jeffrey Lewis, Ten Benson and Birmingham's own Misty's Big Adventure.

All in all, a man to be reckoned with, and we're delighted to be hosting his film here.
