Meeting Jeremy Thomas

Fortunately due to my wonderful teachers , I was given the amazing opportunity to meet, the very famous, proud to mention British film producer Jeremy Thomas! Some of the films he as produces are as follows: The Last Emperor (1987), Sexy Beast (2000), Rabbit Proof Fence (2002) and The dreamers (2003).
 Son of Gerald Thomas, so he grew up in the film industry which soon became his passion. Given a start in life, he was a rebel at school and dedicated all of his time towards film and making them. He was a very determined young boy who climbed his way to the top. He had won an Oscar for The Last Emperor, in total the film wining nine! It is a remarkable achievement one which everyone passionate about film making can only dream of!
 Listening to him speak was intriguing, simultaneously inspiring, you could almost feel his passion for films. He seemed very understanding towards being young and interested in film, he was down to earth, naturally poetic and as he said through his years of experience he was full of helpful quotes, he compared life to a journey in an air craft -" The plane takes off, you travel through the clouds where much doesn't seem clear, then finally you get through the clouds, and everything becomes clear again".Another quote he sheared with us speaking of life was as follows- "You drop a leaf into a river, and it (you) drift down the river meeting obstructions (and people) along the way".
