Christopher Robin Collins

Twisted

Four unsuspecting victims find themselves beyond "The Twilight Zone" in a twisted and altered reality: an airline passenger thinks he's lost his identity... a bored housewife thinks she's found romance... a conman thinks he's made his mark... and a hired killer thinks she's ready to retire. Unfortunately for all of them, they soon discover that there's nothing like reality to get in the way of an otherwise perfectly twisted perspective. Things are never quite that simple.

Little Thief

Set in the heart of Sydney Australia, this is a touching drama about the complex relationship between two misfits; Hyun, a lonely Korean man and Martina, a young orphaned girl. A strange and unique bond is forged against the stark contrast of their different lives and the back drop of the harsh realities of drugs, prostitution and gang life. Somehow these two find sanctuary in each other; Martina helps Hyun reconnect with the world around him and he helps this overly cynical young girl believe in dreams again. Intense, raw performances bring rare emotional veracity and intimacy to a delicate story. An impressive team of emerging talent create a moving, perceptual film.

Pillows & Prayers

In 1984, director Christopher Collins made a film of the same name that essentially strung together six videos of songs by Cherry Red artists. . (Everything But the Girl, Marine Girls, and Eyeless in Gaza Everything But the Girl's "On My Mind," Kevin Hewick, Fantastic Something, and the Monochrome Set). Pillows and Prayers -- The DVD is above-average for mid-'80s rock video, the clips showing the artists in peculiar, sometimes surrealistic settings that seem halfway between the British suburbs and the British countryside, although the Monochrome Set's "Jet Set Junta" is a more conventional performance-on-soundstage looking bit. The clips are linked together, on a more surrealistic note, by '50s British TV advertisements, as well as a bored-looking young woman switching a TV channel to mark the start of many of the different sections.
