Me again, thanks for filling in some of my gaps. Anyone know
if either
of these films is available in the States? I'm going to start
looking
as soon as I finish this.
One correction, though. "Not Till The Red Fog Rises" is not a
Factory
novel. It is a Goodis-style thriller (down to the cover with
a
shirtless man and a bra-wearing woman, but both still wearing
guns,
lying on a bed with an empty glass between them) about a
convict, Gust,
whom no one will leave alone upon his parole after 10 years
in prison.
Of course, he has to pull one more scam, involving blank
passports,
which adds international intrigue.
The jacket copy notes that the first four Factory novels were
soon to be
adapted by BBC TV. That was in '94. So let me add my voice to
Frank
Glenewinkel who asked about them: Were they ever finished? If
they
were, does anyone know if they aired and if anyone (PBS?
A&E?) has plans
to bring them to the States? Maybe that would bring his books
back into
print over here.
Mark
