King's Speech 2: The Tourette's Years
Davoid Cameroon suggested this week that the British film industry should concentrate on making 'commercially successful films' like The King's Speech. What a very clever idea. I'm surprised Hollywood haven't cottoned onto this one. Instead of just making any old shit in the hope that some of it will stick, they could just concentrate on the 'commercially successful' portion of their output.
And how shrewd of him to align himself with commercial success! Because, although I don't know if a survey has been done to prove this, I'm sure that most voters, if asked what films they like to see, would tend to display a preference for 'commercially successful' ones.
He also revealed that his favourite band was Band Of Horses, that notorious hit-making machine, while casting aspersions on Katy Perry and Bruno Mars, those tuneless avant garde wonders whose improvised squalls of jazz-noise are unlikely ever to trouble the charts, thank God.
So at least he's consistent.
