Kris Marshall is Art, an aspiring low-budget
filmmaker whose over-active imagination turns everyday life into classic
cinematic adventures.
Art and his friend Jones (Andrew Scott) think
they're the English Coen brothers - except that they're not brothers
and they haven't made any films.
Against this backdrop of playful homage, My Life
In Film explores the isosceles triangle of love, friendship and
obsession between Art, Jones and Beth (Alice Lowe), with a knowing
nod to films such as The Shining, Shallow Grave, Rear Window and Top
Gun.
After a critically successful run on BBC THREE, My Life
In Film now comes to BBC TWO. The first episode will be shown on Sunday
2 January 2005 at 9.30pm.
A press
pack for My Life In Film is available but please note the running
order for the episodes on BBC TWO will be as follows:
Episode one: Rear Window
Episode two: The Shining
Episode three: Top Gun
Episode four: Shallow Grave
Episode five: 8½
Episode six: Butch Cassidy
My Life In Film is a BBC Production, written by Mark
Chappell, directed by Toby MacDonald and produced by Paul Schlesinger.
