I am a fan of A Fish Called Wanda, though. It has to be one of the tightest plotted and funniest films ever produced, it was certainly Charles Crichton's crowning achievement. And yes, I do know that he directed The Lavender Hill Mob. I would like to know whether the press reports about it being turned into a musical are true. If they are true, I would like to know how the lyrics are coming along. I ask because I have been writing lyrics for amateur reviews for 15 years or so. They have always gone down pretty well, but audiences only run to a couple of hundred and I would love to get my teeth into something bigger. I have jotted some ideas down for a FCW musical, and would be happy to send them on request to the email address supplied for my registration. Be assured - I'm not a swivel-eyed lunatic, my eyes are surprisingly normal! I am no fan of football.
