Didn't he do Withnail and I?

Are you serious ?

Am I the only person who thinks one of his greatest works was Vincent & Theo? co-funded by Auntie Beeb y'know - first shown as part of Arena on BBC2...(goes off on very dull rant about Tim Roth and Paul Rhys and the scene where a french prostitute goes for a pee )

Vincent and Theo was rather splendid. I really liked the way it started with video footage of Sunflowers being sold for $millions. Excellent performances, lovely script.
