About this Member

Hello...

Just posted my opinion about The Matrix Revolutions, so give that a read if you get five minutes.

For those of you who don't know me, I am Dave, a 21 year old student at the University of York.

I am a keen 'film-buff', with a wide and eclectic range of film interests and knowledge. Keep checking back for more opinions...

My current favourite directors and movies:

-Jean Luc Godard (Bande A Part)
- Martin Scorsese (Mean Streets)
- Ingmar Bergman (The Virgin Spring)
- Oliver Stone (Natural Born Killers)
- Sam Peckinpah (The Wild Bunch)
-Francois Truffaut (Tirez Sur La Pianiste)
- Quentin Tarantino (Jackie Brown)
