We’re in the early days yet, so all this has to be prefaced with “we hope”, but there’s a cinematic Momus musical in the works. It’s provisionally entitled Monsters of Love, and will draw a plot line through about sixteen of my songs, mostly those dealing with bizarre love triangles. The film, to be set in London and Marrakesh, will be directed by Peter Webber (seen above at our first meeting today), who made the acclaimed Girl With A Pearl Earring starring Scarlett Johansson.
Monsters of Love will feature (again, “we hope”) new orchestral arrangements of songs like In The Sanatorium, Hairstyle of the Devil and Ex-Erotomane by Leo Chadburn, who records under the name Simon Bookish.
