Four Lions
This is a post for those of you who might not be familiar with Chris Morris.
The man behind 90's spoof news shows like The Day Today or Brass Eye.
I got introduced to Chris's work by Luka Marchant with one of his most memorable moments:
Brasseye drugs

What really made him famous was tricking celebrities and politicians into throwing support behind public awareness campaigns for made-up issues that were often absurd or surreal.
"When you take cake, a second seems like a month. Almost sounds like fun, unless you're the Prague schoolboy who walked out into the street straight in front of a tram... He thought he had a month to cross the street."
After making the first Warp film and kind of disappearing from the medias, Chris is back with his debut feature film called Four Lions, the story of a group of wannabe suicide bombers.
British comedy at its best! Absurd!
