This long silence is all the more remarkable given his meteoric rise: between 1979 and 1983, the Glasgow native crafted four comic gems that helped put Scottish cinema on the map. How did the director of such enduring classics as Gregory's Girl and Local Hero seemingly vanish from the film world It's tempting to blame his retreat on the painful fallout from Being Human, the troubled Hollywood production starring Robin Williams. But even before that big budget flop, the deeply reserved Forsyth wrestled with the discomfort he felt directing-and with audiences who often overlooked the serious themes beneath his offbeat comedies. 'I've always had a much darker side than most people have perceived,' he confided to British critic John Brown. Through interviews with leading critics and film authorities, Bill Forsyth: Interviews offers a revealing look at the filmmaker's personal approach to his art, shaped by early encounters with the French New Wave and a youthful stint making industrial films about forestry, fishing, and factories. Forsyth reflects on his debt to auteurs like François Truffaut, Preston Sturges, Jean Renoir, and Jacques Tati, and offers candid insights into his process. These conversations highlight his methods and the underappreciated dimensions of his work, including what Scottish critic Jonathan Murray calls their 'comic ingenuity, idiosyncratic narrative structures, and tonal complexity.' 168 pp. Englisch.…
