VARIETY

Saul’s second feature film was GUY X (F&ME & Spice Factory for Film Consortium & Movision), which starred Jason Biggs, Natascha McElhone, Jeremy Northam & Michael Ironside.

The film premiered at the Taormina Film Festival, where it won prizes for Best Director and Best Actor (Jason Biggs). GUY X was released in cinemas in the UK and internationally.

“A smart black comedy in the tradition of M*A*S*H and Catch-22, Guy X also proves emotionally involving enough to win over hearts as well as minds”

 EMPIRE (****)
