Paul McGann and Royal Liverpool
Philharmonic collaborate on short film
The 'Withnail & I' actor stars in a film about a man trying to recreate a concerto heard
in his dreams
By Steve Wright
A new short film inspired by classical music features a performance from actor Paul
McGann – and also showcases the beautiful Royal Liverpool Philharmonic concert
hall.
Swallow Your Dreams, by filmmaker Dan Sloan, centres around a man attempting –
much to the concern of his wife – to extract a piano concerto that he has composed
in his dreams. As well as Paul McGann (Withnail & I, Alien 3), the cast also features
Amy Bailey (Vikings).
