I'm chuffed that The Oldest Life on Earth released last Monday 28th March to some very positive feedback! My Sooty colleague Wink Taylor, who has vast experience in the TV industry, was kind enough to give the project a full critique. Here are some of the things he said:
"The Direction was good with some really nicely chosen shots and I felt the whole thing was edited with a lot of pace and energy. The main thrust of the story, (the... concept of "is he dead or isn't he?") really held my attention and I enjoyed trying to guess the conclusion."
"I thought everyone gave a really good spirited performance and no one diminished the project - in fact I thought all the players were really good."
"To think that you wrote this, acted in it and directed it - is a fantastic achievement. You are a good old fashioned auteur like Charlie Chaplin, Orson Welles and Clint Eastwood."
But don't just take his word for it. Punk! (Okay, I can't pull off Clint Eastwood.) Find out for yourself and order a copy now from www.skerratt-media.co.uk/theoldestlifeonearth.html .
I'd also like to thank those of you who've already taken the plunge and given this film your hard earned time, (as well as your cash!) I rely a lot on your support and I genuinely appreciate your honest feedback. Thank you :)
