The @janejacobsdoc : Battle for the City (2016) is an encouragement to us, when we do not think that we can make a difference to our lives ! pic.twitter.com/YEG64wrfsw— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) May 8, 2017

After #UCFF invoked Macbeth Act II, Scene 3, and asked if Hardy influenced the world of @TheLevelling, @hopedickle thought probably Chekhov.— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) May 4, 2017

Post-script - a maybe spoilery exchange with Neil 'Every Film' White :
Of @TheLevelling, @everyfilmneil says 'Realism doesn't necessarily make for enthralling movies' - is it realism ? :https://t.co/rg05qBe1D3— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) May 18, 2017
@everyfilmneil @TheLevelling Some might call that 'a naturalistic presentation', because it is not inconsistent with, say, also having elements of symbolism ?— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) May 18, 2017
@THEAGENTAPSLEY @TheLevelling Crikey, mate - it's nearly 40 years since I studied English literature. You are going much deeper than I intended.— neil white (@everyfilmneil) May 18, 2017
@THEAGENTAPSLEY @TheLevelling Fair points. I should have been specific about the relationships being realistic.— neil white (@everyfilmneil) May 18, 2017
