“…the script is a definite contender for the lab. It’s a unique idea with a capable writer at the helm… a noteworthy project…” –Feedback from the Film Independent Screenwriting Lab 2012
“What a neat and twisted little tale you have here… Even with all the craziness on the page, it never sounded like a campy comedy; instead, it was like a drawing room farce with just enough menace to make the viewer worry about the fate of our hero.” –Feedback from the 2013 BlueCat Screenplay Competition

Quarter finalist in the 2013 CWA (Creative World Awards).
2nd round qualifier in the Kaos Films British Short Screenplay Competition 2012, judged by Sir Kenneth Branagh.
“Death Is No Bad Friend is a poetic script that relies on imagery to evoke a morose feeling. The language is very well-crafted, with the characters’ style of speech accurate for the time period. Because the descriptions are succinct but also written in a similar style, the script reads easily and quickly while creating clear images of the locations.” –Feedback from the 2014 BlueCat Screenplay Competition.
“…a compelling structure for a short. It heightens the stakes knowing that the protagonist is going to end up in a life-threatening and bloody situation. It also makes the story compact and easy to digest — a great attribute in a short.” –Feedback from the 2014 BlueCat Screenplay Competition.
“Great use of setting here; the circus world is evocative and memorable, and allows the characters to express themselves with very little dialogue. …Overall, an interesting storyline with some sympathetic characters in a fascinating setting.” –Feedback from the 2014 Slamdance Screenplay Competition

Eros in Piccadilly Circus.
Today — Elena, Laura and I explored the William Blake historic sites. We met at Piccadilly Circus and walked over to Saint James’s Church , where Blake was baptized. The baptismal font is still there, with very intricate carvings of Adam and Eve. It’s amazing to think that Blake was once a baby who could fit in that font!

A different angle inside St. James’s.
Then, we took a double-decker bus through the city all the way across the Thames to Battersea to visit Saint Mary’s Church were Blake and Catherine were married. We almost got lost since there were a number of similar churchs in the area, but we managed to find the right one. The ladies in the church were a bit confused at first by our presence. But when I told them that we are Blake enthusiasts, they immediately understood.

After that, we went to visit Blake’s grave at Bunhill Fields . It was a very old but charming cemetary, and it was fascinating watching them in the process of restoring some of the old crypts and tombstones. I left a simple offering at Blake’s gravestone — an apple — and also explored the green where Blake’s physical body is supposed to have been buried (I believe The Friends of William Blake are trying to raise money and/or petition for a special monument at Blake’s actual burial site).
Bunhill Fields is quite serene.

A simple offering.
Blake’s actual remains are somewhere around here, I think.
Didn’t get a chance to go in… Next time!
Another angle of Bunyan’s tomb.
Then, we went to visit Westminster Abbey. Here, I unfortunately got separated from Elena and Laura, and we couldn’t find each other again. 😦 But I’m glad I went, even though it was a bit overwhelming to take in. I especially enjoyed the Poets’ Corner where I saw commemorations to Lord Byron, Lewis Carroll and Blake among others.
Big Ben/Elizabeth Tower.
Approaching Westminster Abbey.
Westminster Abbey!
I spy the London Eye!
The absolute highlight of my day — and possibly even my trip — was the British Museum’s Department of Prints and Drawings. I didn’t get to see all that much of the museum proper, but inside this department I was allowed to handle and examine an original print of Blake’s Songs of Innocence and of Experience
Inside The British Museum.
Afternoon tea is about to commence.
Now I feel that my trip is complete.
I ate every last crumb!
Scones and clotted cream.
That was fun!
See ya’ later, British Museum!
Tomorrow, back to San Francisco!

Above is the last entry of the journal I wrote during my Cannes/London trip.
Overall, this trip was an amazing experience and I’m glad I was able to do almost everything I planned to.
I met so many amazing people along the way and was inspired by everything I encountered.
I hope you all enjoyed reading these posts!
Best,
G. E.

Underground.
Approaching Trafalgar Square.
Trafalgar Square.
View from Trafalgar Square.
Elmgreen and Dragset’s bronze sculpture of a boy on a rocking horse.
Statue of George IV.
Statue of Shakespeare under renovation at Leicester Square.
A favorite quote.
I couldn’t resist The Cumberbatch.
Along Leicester Square.
Entrance to the National Portrait Gallery.
I began my day exploring Trafalgar Square and the surrounding area while waiting for the museums to open. I went from statue to statue, taking photos and reading inscriptions. Around the block, I found myself at Leicester Square where a statue of Shakespeare is under renovation.
I spent about an hour or so running around the National Portrait Gallery, which was a lot of fun since very few people were there so it felt as if I had the whole museum to myself. During this time, I discovered many interesting paintings and that sometimes the portrait is just as much about the subject as it is about the artist behind the scenes. I was particularly delighted that the portraits of William Blake, Lord Byron, and Lord & Mary Shelley were all in the same room. Also, I was excited to see Sir William Blake Richmond’s portrait of Robert Louis Stevenson and Sir John Everett Millais’s portrait of Sir Arthur Sullivan.
Relate Post: Cannes/London 2013: Wednesday, May 29th @ National Portrait Gallery .
After that, I had an early lunch at The Chandos pub Opera Room — a cozy restaurant with fire places and stained glass windows — and ate the most incredible fish and chips I’ve ever had. Like the Portrait Gallery, I had this place too all to myself.
The Chandos pub.
Entrance to the Opera Room.
Inside the Opera Room.
Stained glass windows in the Opera Room.
Nothing like a fireplace on a rainy day.
Teatime!!
Fish and Chips to die for!
After lunch, I tried to take the Harrods bus tour, but it was sold out — which was fine by me. Instead, I bought some chocolates and candies at Harrods for later and had tea time at Café Liberty, inside the Liberty of London department store.
Harrods is quite over the top.
Difficult to resist all the candy and chocolates.
The famous Egyptian room.
Liberty of London.
Inside Liberty.
Can’t get enough of this architecture.
Can I film a movie in here?
Inside Café Liberty.
Teatime, again!!
Aromatic Darjeeling.
I have a weakness for lemon tart.
See you later, Liberty.
Green tea chocolate, marzipan, and Turkish delight from Harrods.
Around 7 p.m., I was reunited after three years with my great friend Elena and company for a Jack the Ripper walking tour. It was so wonderful to see Elena again and we all had a great time on the tour. The tour guide was very good, like an actor performing each character in every murder and theory. At the end, to rest our feet a bit before going home, we hung out at The Ten Bells pub — know as the Jack the Ripper Pub since the victim “…Annie Chapman may have drunk at the pub shortly before she was murdered.”
All in all, a busy but exciting day!
An old city wall.
A church where one of the Ripper’s victims was seen.
The Gherkin.
Along the Ripper’s path.
Tracking the Ripper’s footsteps.
My camera is making everything blurry.
Very ominous.
Not far from where the Ripper’s last victim was murdered.
Christ Church, Spitalfields.
Outside the Ten Bells pub.
Our tour guide!

Another foreboding photo of the Ten Bells.
Spitalfields Market at night.

G. E. Gallas
Writer & Illustrator
MISSION STATEMENT: For as long as I can remember, I have been telling stories through words and images. I am a graduate of New York University: Gallatin School of Individualized Study, where I created my own major: a cross-cultural study of storytelling within film, literature, graphic novels, etc. In writing and illustration, I adapt this interdisciplinary approach, pursuing my diverse interests with in-depth research and imagination.
