The effects of the fire at Sony DADC in the midst of the summer riots were felt by the length and breadth of the entertainment industry in the UK.
One film on the label was affected in particular – The Drummond Will – which was released the week prior to the fire and saw the prospects of the newly promoted film, go up in smoke.
A first time feature film, made with money raised independently by a group of talented up and comers, The Drummond Will is a twisted black British comedy that has been taking festivals around the globe by storm.
Like other small indie labels, regretfully, not all of the titles could be re-manufactured and put back out for general sale. But thankfully, after a lot of hard work and patience on the filmmaker’s part The Drummond Will is again available to buy on DVD and Blu Ray.
Synopsis:
Two city-boy brothers, one a charismatic optimist, the other a whining corporate sell-out, return to the countryside for their father’s funeral. On checking out his decrepit estate the boys find one of their dad’s ancient friends hiding in a closet with a bag full money. Whilst they decide what to do the pensioner is left to suffocate in the closet, leaving them with a much bigger problem to deal with; tell the police, or leave the body in his own home and pretend nothing happened (keeping the money in the process). This opens their world up to a series of bizarre incidents resulting in the village’s quirky population gently decreasing during their short stay.
