“John Gallagher is a well known name among independent filmmakers. He is a director with a big heart, a love for clever stories and affection for good character acting … His new movie CUPIDITY is a masterpiece of improvisation. Using a simple video camera and working with 30 actors he has produced an impressive piece of indie cinema … John is a master of timing and subtle humour and he works intensely with his actors. His love comedy carries the spirit of John Cassavetes into the age of digital video.” Torsten Neuman, Film Fest Oldenburg, Germany
