Almost exactly one year on from the original version, I re-filmed my first Graveyard Ditty (and indeed my first short film) on location in Hampstead Cemetery. The new footage was captured in one long take just a few weeks ago on a glorious spring afternoon - not by webcam this time but by video camera - and was first screened at Burgh House on the evening of my private viewing.
In the spirit of the poem, perhaps I will re-shoot my energetic cemetery run each spring.
You demonstrate excellent recovery time from your sprint. I see the London Marathon beckoning you even now!
ReplyDeleteAnyone performing Antigone and Coco concurently, needn't run through the cemetery to know you are alive in both mind and body.

Very impressive, actually -- your poem, schedule, and instrument.
Best,
