FYI...
Track Record: Vertigo Films was set up in 2002 with the specific purpose of making two low-budget, commercial British movies: The Football Factory and It's All Gone Pete Tong. That goal has now been achieved, but the company is already planning bigger and better things. The men behind the company are producers Allan Niblo and James Richardson; writer/director Nick Love; distributor Rupert Preston; and financier Rob Morgan. They make no bones about what they're aiming to achieve: a conveyor belt that makes four movies a year and releases another four under their own distribution company, and at the kind of cost which most Hollywood studios spend on their star's personal trainer.
Go Figure: 85 - that's the hours of footage that director Michael Dowse shot for It's All Gone Pete Tong - that's almost an hour for every minute of actual screen time.
UK OK? It's All Gone Pete Tong was a co-production with Canada and, although that involves lots of red tape, it's a road Vertigo will venture down again in the future.
Yes, Really: The Football Factory was withdrawn from cinemas in Sweden after a fight broke out between rivals fans during a screening in Malmo.
