DRIVE booklet essay

To call Second Sight releases ‘breathtaking’ is something of an understatement. Just when I think they’ve outdone themselves, they come up with another. This time, it’s a special 4K UHD & Blu-ray edition of DRIVE (dir. Nicolas Winding Refn, 2011).

I’ve contributed to the booklet of this special edition where I do my best to posit DRIVE as a fairytale. Do you agree with me? I’m willing to consider your arguments once you’ve read the essay.

Take a look at the complete offering here and order your limited edition copy. I promise you won’t be sorry.

See Hear podcast: SUMMER OF SOUL (Or When the Revolution Could Not be Televised)

People often pigeonhole me as a horror commentator but my interests are wide and varied, so it was particularly thrilling for me to step into the shoes of a bass-playing, young Emma to speak for an hour or so about the multi-award-winning documentary on the Harlem Cultural Festival of ’69, SUMMER OF SOUL (2021). The invitation to do so was extended to me by Maurice and Bernie from See Hear Podcast.

What’s possibly more exceptionally notable is that I have appeared on Episode 95 of this podcast, which – yes – is only five episodes shy of 100, and a remarkable milestone in terms of the labour-versus-financial return of these podcast endeavours. Throw them your cash, I say!

Listen to our podcast and watch this wonderful documentary.
