Talk:Alan Clarke

Wrong picture?
Is this really a picture of Alan Clarke? There are other pictures kicking around the net purporting to be of Clarke, such as the ones here and here and those pictures show a very different likeness. --62.31.41.79 20:33, 29 August 2006 (UTC)


 * It's not Clarke, it's BBC producer David M. Thompson who produced at least one of Clarke's films, according to my copy of Richard Kelly's book on Clarke. The pictures you give links to are indeed of the real man.  Please rectify, somebody, before I do it myself.  In fact, Clarke deserves a way bigger article - any takers?  I'll do it, although there's only one readily available book on his life.  Lexo 1:28, 31 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Quite agree - the current article doesn't do the man real justice, and covers only a fraction of his work. My own biography at gives a few pointers, although it is ten years old and was constrained by a word-count limit for the book it was for, and so wasn't as comprehensive as it could have been even at the time.
