What I'm watching: John Trengrove, director of 'The Wound'
30 July 2017 - 17:44
John Trengove graduated from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. His debut feature The Wound premiered at the Sundance and Berlinale film festivals this year. It won best director for Trengove and best actor for Nakhane Toure at the Durban International Film Festival.
He tells us more about his TV-viewing habits:
The first shows I remember bingeing on were Twin Peaks and Absolutely Fabulous. I just re-watched the whole Ab Fab box set two weeks ago.
I think Twin Peaks is just as profound as it was 20 years ago. It's astonishing and I can't actually believe what I'm looking at - he was the future of television then and I feel like ... this is how we're going to be making TV shows 10 years from now...
