David “Dai” Bradley debuted in film KES as 14 years old guy depicting main character Billy Casper. The film directed by Ken Loach was huge success an was voted as the 7th greatest British film of 20the century. Dai was fantastic and still today he is invited to functions connected with this film, that influenced so many people through six decades. Thanks to help of Esta Charkham of agency Esta Charkham Associates we managed to send questions to Dai, who kindly, despite being incredibly busy, answered them within few days. What an honor.
Ken Loach - Happy 90th birthday
Extraordinary English filmmaker Ken Loach will celebrate his 90th birthday on 17 June and we would like to pay him a homage with our article.
This extraordinary, charismatic actor, who played in film lastly in 2010, but denies permanent retirement, simply doesn´t enjoy flying around the world and promoting his films, he rather enjoys his life after spending six decades on top of the film business. It does make one tired, especially if he lives and works in Hollywood. His life could be labelled as Sex, drugs and money, but despite that, unlike his friend Dennis Hopper, Jack was and is quality and popular actor, who was many times nominated for 37 different awards and only at Academy Award which he won 3 times, he was nominated 12 times in 33 years, which is remarkable score. Since making an interview with him is no go, we used his biography written by Marc Eliot, to make him a tribute article which he deserves.
Wolfgang Büld: Punk in London
I have seen a documentary film Punk in London in circa 1987 on pirate videotape during communism and it was a jaw dropping stuff for me (unbeknown to me, by that time most of the bands in the movie split up and punk waned). It was the first film about British punks I have ever seen and up until today remained as one of my favourite. For past 20 years I was toying with idea of making interview with director Wolfgang Büld who also directed further punk related movies. I could not find any contact for him and almost gave up but my girlfriend Eva helped me with FB connection and the reply from Mr. Büld came within next day and interview was matter of week. Wow, it was my dream come true.
When we watched the V series sometimes in 1986 on pirate videotapes with one voice-over, we were stunned how brilliantly it was made and how deep the idea was. It hasn´t dated during those 40 years and we still love it with same passion. We never ever dreamt about making interview with its´ director, but when he was so nice and helpful, it would have been a sin to miss the chance.
