Film About Jeffrey Catherine Jones

Some of you will remember my post from last year on the obituaries written for Jeffrey Catherine Jones. Thanks to Anne Gray I have discovered that a film is being made about Jones’ life, including many interviews with contemporary artists and writers (Moebius, Roger Dean, Dave McKean, Neil Gaiman). The filming was done while Jones was still alive and able to participate. It will be called Better Things: The Life and Choices of Jeffrey Catherine Jones and you can find the official website here. The director, Maria Paz Cabardo, has a blog here.

I’m mentioning the film in part because I’m looking forward to seeing it, but also because it is pretty much a one-person endeavor and without a cash injection it is unlikely to be finished any time soon. There’s an appeal for funds here. Here’s the trailer.

  1. Hi, just to be clear, the film is “in the can”. This last round of fundraising it to help clear up the last $4k of out-standing costs. Cleaning up these last bills will allow Maria to focus completely on the task of getting this wonderful film into the hands (eyes) of the public.
