The Maltese Falcon meets The IT Crowd in this diverting mixture of romantic comedy and hectic chase thriller from co-writer/director David Barras. Buddies Jason and Wolf are the impoverished owners of Deadhead Comics and need £5,000 to save the business. Then a mint condition copy of the Electric Man comic from 1937 just falls into their hands – only they don’t recognise it. The coveted comic is hotly pursued by an American collector, the sinister Jimmy and a femme fatale by the name of Lauren McCall. The dry wit of the screenplay and bantering relationship between the central duo are the star attractions in this impressive micro-budget Scottish production.
We are delighted that director David Barras and producer Ellen-Raissa Jackson will introduce and take part in a Q&A following the screening on Thursday 23 February (16.45), along with co-writer Scott Mackay and actors Emily Lockwood, Mark McKirdy and Toby Manley

This looks like good fun. Also looking forward to seeing Fish on the big Screen. After his impressive cameo in "The jacket" and various tv roles, maybe another string to his bow.
