I think Alan Yentob is one of the finest and interviews well. He extracts so much from his subjects. I am glad he brought to the surface what was going on for him, so that Dennis could explain further his art and his life through his work, gripping stuff.
-
I think the ideas his speech here are rather obvious and coherent, although I wouldn't be surprised if Potter is deliberately misrepresenting his opinions.
-
A tortured genius...
-
I find all his talk deliberately obscuring. We must watch 'Pennies' and 'The Singing Detective' for their meanings. The work is enough. The talk is just talk. Does anyone agree with me?
-
Did enybody else watch the interview with Melvyn Bragg - so much better than this interview in my humble opinion - by the way cannot find much on his classic - Blue Remembered Hills.

No...I taped it from TV (PBS? I forget).
Very interesting, thank you for uploading this.

You are welcome. Some of his points take some understanding, but once you understand, it makes perfect sense and applies to us all. Not many interviews like this these days.
