Iain F. McAsh, “Take 1: People in Camera — BOLD AS BRASS,”
Films on Screen and Video vol. 5, no. 2,
February 1985, pp. 22–23:
Of his... future projects, one is set in England
in the eighteenth century. It is a story like a combination of Henry
Fielding with Tom Jones and Fanny Hill. “It is a
lot like Tom and Fanny. I have already looked at locations and lots of
English castles, but it would be very expensive to make. I would have
liked to have lived in those days. You either lived in a castle and
were very rich, or in a kitchen and were very poor. In fact, I think I
have lived in a previous life. I have a very precise memory for
details from those earlier times.”
Then he adds gleefully, “I would have felt
more at home then than as a man of today. I love the pleasure of the
senses; hedonistic, libertine behaviour. I enjoy eating, drinking,
enjoying myself, making love.”
