To continue on with the short films theme -In 2002 David appeared in a great little film called 9 1/2 Minutes which was directed, edited and written by Josh Appignanesi and Misha Manson-Smith. The music was provided by Lotown who have done music for adverts for Virgin, Ford, Orange and lots more!
The story is about A couple meeting on a blind date decide to experience an entire relationship in nine-and-a-half minutes. So you could say it is a time travel story! And one more thing - if you take out the beginning and ending credits - the run time is 9 and 1/2 minutes. (10:22 in total)
The film's production company Mercenary Films which, is Misha's company, has the film up on their site for your viewing pleasure. CLICK HERE>
