Born in Northern Ireland. My first cinematic experience was Tom And Jerry: The Movie in 1992. But moved onto Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Batman Forever in 1995. But my love for films really kicked into high gear when my mother bought me a film magazine when I was 13 and never looked back since. My favourite directors are Christoper Nolan, Martin Scorsese, Michael Mann, Paul Greengrass and Terrance Malick – even Roland Emmerich.
Favourite film(s): Goodfellas, L.A. Confidential, The Dark Knight, Manhunter, JFK
Film pet peeve(s): Brett Ratner, Nevdiene/Taylor, and The Da Vinci Code
Film(s) you can’t wait to watch at Screen 22: The Dark Knight Rises
Film(s) you NEVER want to see a remake of: The French Connection
Person/people you’d most like to interview: Martin Scorsese
Why? He’s the king of American cinema and crime/gangster genre
