Hi Symon

Your work on music vids – does that explain the wonderful soundtracks to the films? Do you know the musicians or are the compositions original? The films are great, but the soundtrack adds another layer of texture.

Eric, after 200 documentaries, do you feel you had a “style” of your own now, or do you change how you approach each film?

Eric, Welcome to the Lake. Thank you for all your amazing documentaries.

How did Elliott’s school experiences differ from Angela’s and Tom’s? What was the difference you noted, explaining the different lives when they grew up?

Talking about their formative years is a good way. I think — and as you mentioned in your intro — that one’s political views are determined by the events of their childhood and their nature.

Could you give some examples of Angela’s experiences for our younger readers?

David, have you met Angela, Tom or Elliott, in doing your research?

Dina, how far does the archives go back? What was your biggest surprise going threw them?

Dina, David, Welcome to the Lake.

David, Thank you for Hosting today’s Book Salon.
