DIRECTOR: Graeme Maguire ASSISTANT DIRECTOR: Sarah Maguire POETRY: Marcus Slease SOUNDS: Annie Gardiner of Hysterical Injury STARRING: Rick Hambleton, Natalie Brown, Mo, Jamie Lindsay THANKS TO: The Cube, Scubaboy Inc, Floating Harbour Studios, Geneva Stop GENTLEMEN is a poetry film project in collaboration with poet Marcus Slease. The film was created for an event called Uptight in Bristol, the name of which was the inspiration for the theme of the film. Inspired by Robert Frank’s ‘Pull My Daisy’, a silent film overlaid with jazz music and poetry by Jack Kerouac, Gentlemen is shot on super-8 and contains no dialogue. It is accompanied by a poetic narration by Marcus and an interpretive bass guitar sound track by Annie Gardiner. The film is also an experiment in letting go of perfection and critical thinking. It was shot on one 3 minute roll of super-8 with all editing done in-camera. This meant planning and timing out all the shots before the shoot and then shooting each one in sequence using a stop watch. After processing the film the result is a fully edited film. This also meant that we could only do one take of each shot so the actors HAD to get it right first time!
