'Secret Friends' - Blu-Ray available for pre-order at Powerhouse Films direct - £15.99

Release date: February 17, 2020

"Unfairly neglected since its original low-key cinema run, Secret Friends is the only feature to be written and directed by Dennis Potter (Pennies from Heaven, The Singing Detective).

Made shortly after his hugely controversial mini-series Blackeyes, the film centres on a writer, played by Alan Bates (A Day in the Death of Joe Egg), who descends into a kind of madness during a train journey as memories, fantasies and psychotic visions collide."


SPECIAL FEATURES:
  • High Definition remaster
  • Original stereo audio
  • New audio commentary with Graham Fuller, editor of Potter on Potter
  • Bon Vivant (2020): actor Ian McNeice recalls working with Dennis Potter
  • Theatrical trailer

  • Limited edition exclusive 36-page booklet with a new essay by Jeff Billington, Dennis Potter on the making of Secret Friends, an extract from Potter on Potter, an overview of critical responses, and film credits
