Peter Greenaway - Water Wrackets (1)

Peter Greenaway on Water Wrackets (short film from 1975):
"From my enthusiasm for J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. I invented a fictitious early population for that area called Wrackets. The Wrackets belonged in the swamps, the Mariotts lived in the hills, there was another group who lived in the forest; I was going to develop a very serious bogus anthropological-archaeological study of these mythical characters."

Cantlie speaks with such authority on a subject too few people have even heard of. Love it.
