Average Rating:
Rated 0.0/5 Stars
My Rating:
Run time: 13 min. | United Kingdom
Gone Fishing is the touching story of a boy and old man coming to terms with bereavement through their shared love of fishing, and the legend of Goliath, the biggest pike ever caught!The story is in part autobiographical ? while growing up, director Chris Jones and his friends would often attempt to catch the legendary `Oscar the pike?, a fish that according to local myth terrorized the lake at the end of his road, the aptly named Blue Lagoon. This was the inspiration behind the legend of `Goliath?, the big fish in this even bigger tale.Think 'Jaws' but for kids...

Sky Movies Movie Geek Show Now Online... Special Report from the Screenwriters Festival 2009

A couple of weeks back I was a speaker at the Cheltenham Writers Festival (day 1 blog here, day 2 blog here), which was a fantastic event. I recommend you go next year as it’s such good value and superbly organised. During the event, I was interviewed by Sky for the Move Geek Show, which has now appeared online and you can watch here -  part one above… then part two below… And remember, you can watch it full-screen by clicking the icon in the bottom right of the video window.

NOTE - Some people have had problems loading these videos - you can watch on Sky's dedicated site here - Part 1 and Part 2 of The Movie Geek Show)


Hope you enjoyed it. Right, I am about to get on a plane to go to the Bilbao Film Festival in Spain!

Onwards and upwards!

Chris Jones, Film Maker and Author
