Deasey (Desperate)
1979, English. Directed by Rob Walker.
Deasey is a dreamer - torn between earning his precarious living as reporter on the London end of a Dublin paper, and writing the 'Great Irish Novel'. Perhaps a meeting with old friend, pop-star Noel, will clarify things in his unclear mind? But then again, perhaps it won't.
