  1. am a writer working on a book and I would love for you to do a short film for me … please msg me back Mr booth and let me know… send me an email … or way of contact please sir

  2. What an amazing film. Should the silver screen be so graced with your work! One could only imagine what you could do with one of "hollywierds great movie production budgets!".

  3. I like the look of it. The dark shadows and contrast works well for the story. What kind of lighting did you use?

  4. My goodness, what a wonderful work. I am just a man with little knowledge, and cannot speak to the content as others have. However, I know greatness when I see it. Bravo, well done. —Mark

  5. You r films need to be submitted to film festivals if they haven't already. Excellent work. Unfortunately I don't have access to a promotion network

  6. A TRUE STORY ABOUT PICASSO
    Picasso had a neighbor with a young son, about 5 or 6 years old. One day, the boy visited Picasso and gave him a sheet of paper with a painting on it that the boy said he had created.
    Picasso took the sheet of paper, looked at it and saw a blank page, and then asked the boy, "What is this a painting of?"
    The boy replied, "It is a cow eating grass."
    Picasso then asked, "Where is the grass?"
    The boy replied, "The cow ate it all."
    Picasso then asked, "Where is the cow?"
    The boy replied, "Silly, after the cow ate all the grass, it went back to the barn."
    Picasso then said, "You have defeated me!"

  7. You folks produce excellent thought-provoking and entertaining cinema! The networks could learn much from you. Thank God for you. You provide an alternative comparable to the TV theatrical "playhouse" productions in the early days of television.Thank you ever so much. Please keep up the good work.

  8. For £100 this is very, very impressive colours, photography, acting, language, music  the lot. What lets it down is the clothing and Picasso's hair. If you're going to present an 'historical' event, some-one like Picasso is too identifiable for license and the clothes look 70s. For an extra £50 you should have gone round the charity shops and bought a haircut.  I'm not sure Goebbels could have got to Paris after the time of the Dresden bombing,so if it's ultimately about a clash of manifestos, you should have had Hitler visit Picasso when he went to Paris – they often claim that Hitler was a frustrated painter (Churchill dabbled too).
    I think it's an excellent piece of work. Congratulations.

  9. I enjoyed your film The Eccentric Mr Turner with its transformational final scene. This short film about Pablo Picasso is also very moving as he tries to keep the flame of resistance and artistic truth burning in a time of dark forces and dread..
