Best part about making my way around the UK is everywhere I went, they were playing Amy Winehouse. Boutiques, cafes, restaurants, pubs, all celebrating the music of the damaged muse. She sounded even better in her own country and despite the tabloid crapola, you could tell how much the citizens of Londontown cherish her talents. Got that diva on my nightly prayer list for sure.... In any case, below are some snaps of the fun I had directing a film on kids who couldn't give two shites about celebrity tabloids, but rather, immersed themselves in learning about the lives and works of English literature greats--authors who did hard time and/or burned at the stake while fighting for the freedoms of the pen.... Below, Bobbie got Gat (or Heidi Does Parliament).... 

The kids are alright.....
