Creative Networks - MY JOURNEY TOGETHER - with David Rose Date:24/09/2009 Start Time:18:00 Summary: 50 Years of screen fiction recalled.
Creative Networks welcomes David Rose, the former Head of Drama
at BBC Birmingham, who will present extracts from half a century of
television and cinema together with contributions from writers and past
colleagues.
First staged in 2008 at the National Film Theatre after an invitation
from the BFI, David's showcase uses film clips and his own recollections
to explain how 30 years ago he had managed to employ such people as
Mike Leigh, Alan Bleasdale, Willy Russell, Neville Smith, Stephen Frears,
Alan Clarke, David Rudkin and Peter Terson.
His career has taken him from being the first producer of Z Cars to
initiating the brilliantly successful policy of making cinema feature
films for Channel 4 in the 1980s.
David is a BAFTA Fellow, holds the Gold Medal of the Royal Television
Society and received, for Channel 4, the Roberto Rossellini Award in
Cannes, 1987.
