Not sure if it's been discussed here yet but...
There's a scene in Filth where Ja,es McAvoy's character is prank calling a co-workers wife while watching what appears to be some sort of kids show featuring a man that looks a lot like Frank, he even calls himself "Little Frank", just wondering if there's some sort of connection?
Apart from being distributed by the same company, none whatsoever.
shareMcAvoy is watching Frank Sidebottom, the British musician/comedian who inspired 'Frank'.
shareThanks for the explanation guys, didn't realize that Frank was based on a real guy as well.
shareThat's awesome! Makes the Frank movie different knowing there's actually a real life Frank! I thought Magnolia Pictures was the only thing that kept both movies together...
There was a real Frank but he died a sad and lonely death a few years ago. He had a very funny voice but it scared me like nothing else when I was a kid.
