The Old Cinema
Regent Street
London W1B2UW

For more info, check out mad-shorts.com

Michel Duthin will be there. He is a long time member of SimplyScripts. He wrote Silent Blue Eyes which was filmed by Rajesh Divakaran as “Silent Dark Eyes” which will be one of ten films shown at the event.

If you live in or near London, please, please go. Please take a camera and get your picture taken with Michel. Please ‘whoop it up’ when “Silent Dark Eyes” is announced at the event.

If you go, please seek out Michael and give him, from me, either a firm hand-shake or an open mouthed kiss, depending upon your own sensibilities. If that whole human interaction thing isn’t your bag, it is entirely permissible to get Michel’s attention, lay your right finger against your nose, wink and walk away.
