Description

A lengthy sit-down video interview with Jess Franco and Lina Romay (the cutest couple in showbiz) that rambles over Franco's entire career (pre-1991) as well as following many conversational tangents. Lengthy discussions of the film business, and Franco's directorial approach and craft. Franco reveals himself to be a man of real taste, vastly preferring Beatty's Dick Tracy to Burton's Batman, and offers some intriguing opinions – for instance, he wishes that his early B&W films would be colorized, because he only made them in B&W to save money.
