    The Heygate Estate in Elephant And Castle

    Lots of the Michael Caine film 'Harry Brown' was shot on the Heygate. The semi-derelict state of it meant they were free to smash, burn and shout all they wanted.

    Bars in Stoke Newington, Dalston?

    I'd recommend the Shakespeare on Allen Rd, never too busy, decent crisps.

    Fantastic Mr Fox

    From what I heard, it actually is stop-motion. Don't think Mr.Anderson was present throughout though.

    Films you've seen recently and would unreservedly recommend:

    Too right. Just that simple sudden change of behaviour on the beach at the beginning is enough to keep you on your toes throughout when watching him. Can you think of anything from this period that may have similar qualities? I recently watched Edge of Darkness, and am keen to find some of...

    Films you've seen recently and would unreservedly recommend:

    Paperhouse (1988) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098061/ Bernard Rose's debut. Recommended. It certainly has flaws, but has a very specific kind of creepiness that really hits home if you were a child in the eighties. The dream logic makes you completely distrustful of the whole film.

    Dalston/Hackney/Stokey news

    Dalston/Hackney/Stokey news

    I asked at the shop at the top of my road. Apparently a drunken, stabby fight involving bottles. One person was critical, but that's the last I've heard of it. Certainly not the best thing to see on a Saturday morning stroll for the papers.

    'Layered films'

    No problem, thanks for the tip mrsloane (you are not a self serving prick). I'm researching for a personal project. I have realised that I have maybe not explained myself well enough. I've found a good example here, on the subtitled version of Night Watch (terrible, inventive film). Thanks...

    'Layered films'

    Hello all, first post, so please be nice. I'm looking for examples of films that use text as a graphical device, using text layered over moving image (not subtitles). A good example of this would be Prospero's Books by Peter Greenaway. Where do I go from here? Manga maybe? Thanks in advance:D
