At first startled by his uncanny resemblance to the author's photo, he opened the volume and was electrified. Terse, aggressive, and elliptical, what was true of Ayoade was also true of Hughes's writing, which encompassed stage, screen, and some of the shortest poems ever published.Ayoade embarked on a documentary, The Unfinished Harauld Hughes, to understand the unfathomable collapse of Hughes's final film O Bedlam! O Bedlam!, taking us deep inside the most furious British writer since the Boer War.This is the story of the story of that quest.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 135mmAuthor: Richard AyoadeGenre: Films & TVTopic: Humour & Joke BooksRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
