‘I enjoyed it very much. Funny, human, clever, gentle and slightly dark! What an achievement’
‘Being Lionel was really good. It’s poignant, funny and doesn’t hang about - feels like a proper short.
And it was definitely right to go out on Lionel’s feet!’
‘Really good - enjoyed it a lot - and I don’t generally like short films. Tap dancing end shot - perfect!’
‘It is a sweet tale and I love the script. Please, please let me shoot your next one.’
‘Fantastic work! Polished and very smart writing’
