Illegal Tender
- Director: Paul Bettell
CGiii Comment
The doyen of British underground filmmaking at the time was Derek Jarman...
This is just a duplicate of Mr Jarman's work.
In the film's favour...it was much more difficult to make [experimental] film then than it is now. Then...it required a certain amount of skill and talent!
Watch...here
The(ir) Blurb...
A queer, psychedelic portrait of a young man’s desires in an industrial wasteland, this film by Paul Bettell contrasts tenderness of two men together with sequences of cranes and high buildings, and the piece builds to a transcendental and intense conclusion.
Filmmaker Bettell sadly made only two films before dying from AIDS-related complications.
