DAY FIFTEEN – A MORNING AT THE BEACH AND NATALIE’S APARTMENT IN OLD BARCELONA. I persuade Jon, Rachel and Hannah to dig frantically in the sand while remembering where they came from while Jo and the real Sclubbers interrogate them. Everyone delivers incredible performances that are real and full of commitment – they stay in the moment throughout the scene and I’m so impressed. I wish the script contained more scenes like this so they could flourish but all too often the soil on which their performances must grow is unbreabaly thin. The weather is kind to us and we pick up the close-ups for the unfinished scene we started at Sitges last week. We finish the day shooting the band escaping from jail and I’m visibly upset again – the location has been chosen for me and is in a narrow backstreet not the spacious square I had hoped for. John (co-producer) reasonably tells me that I could have changed it which makes me just more furious with myself that I’m so English and don’t speak my mind.
