Ricky Adam works for Dig Magazine. Our favorite magazine of all time. He also lives in Leeds and has been taking photos of punks snogging and battered buck teethed kids in depressing poverty stricken rural suburbs for a while. He has just re fiddled his website and added more stuff. Go check it out. Oh and defgrip did and interview here.
My love of Alexander Skarsgard (Generation Kill, True Blood) is initially what attracted me to this film, but after reading the blurb on the ICA(Institute of Contemporary Arts) website, I sadly realized he’s only a minor character.
