The Lady with the Lamp
The Lady with the Lamp is a short film I made by accident whilst filming Pooling Together. Incredibly the film has become more popular and successful than most other films I’ve made.
It’s very much a snapshot of what the relationship between my Mother and I is like. It certainly at least shows some of the downsides to living at home when your 21.
FEATURED ON It’s Nice that, Sugru, College humor, MSN.com (4 Stars), The Sun, The Evening News, The Daily Express & The Daily Star.
