'It looks exactly like it cost that much to make, but that's part of its charm'
On this episode, Anna is joined by screenwriter Chris Watt to talk about That Sinking Feeling, Bill Forsyth's record breakingly low budget debut feature from 1979.
The crime caper set in the 'fictitious town of Glasgow' is a charming, whimsical treat, once described by one of its stars Robert Buchanan as 'Typically Glaswegian, more so than Taggart.'
Join Anna and Chris as they discuss the perils of independent film funding, dubious 70s hairstyles, disappointing voice dubbing and the appeal of cornflakes.
