George Parker: Ridley Scott’s actual declare to fame – he went to school with me!


At present, Thursday, November 30 is the birthday of Ridley Scott, the famed Geordie director. He can be 86 years previous. Which coincidentally, is similar age as me! How the hell does he do it? Proper now, he’s basking within the success of simply launched “Napoleon.” The one place it’s much less profitable is France ‘cos they are saying it is filled with historic cock-ups. Reminiscent of he didn’t hearth cannons on the pyramid, he wore his hat the incorrect approach spherical and he was a lecherous bugger. Though, there’s a component of fact in that. Always remember that on coming back from one among his escapades he would ship phrase to Josehine to not bathe for 3 days! Proper now, Ridley is placing the ending touches to Gladiator ll.

With one other epic lined as much as shoot behind that. I don’t understand how he does it. I can hardly raise my breakfast beer and lunchtime Martinis. There’s a wonderful article on him in Rolling Stone… The opening paragraphs inform us that he went to the Royal School of Artwork… So, did I. He received a Royal Society of Arts bursary… So, did I. He used it to get to New York and worm his approach into the advert biz… So, did I. Is that this additional proof that nice minds assume alike? You wager your arse.
