Withnail and I Reunited

Posted by Peter Smith

The Sunday Times is allowing readers to download a short film, Always Crashing in the Same Car, that reunites Richard E. Grant and Paul McGann for the first time since Withnail & I. In the attached article, director Duncan Wellaway explains how he got the two thespians together for the first time in nearly twenty years. The surprise to me is that the film is being distributed in this way, given that so many international festivals penalize short filmmakers who show their films on the web. — Faisal A. Qureshi
