The first film I can remember seeing on TV was 'The Brides of Dracula.' I was instantly hooked.
All films speak to their times. It becomes obvious only after.
One man's fish is another man's poisson.
I love the Shakespeare history plays, I love the struggle for the crown as a plot.
When I was your age — about, ooh, a thousand years ago — I loved a good bedtime story. The Three Little Sontarans. The Emperor Dalek's New Clothes. Snow White and the Seven Keys to Doomsday, eh? All the classics.
Sci-fi and fantasy used to be a TV staple throughout my childhood. Then it just stopped dead. It was seen as culty, a minority interest.
