LEADING UK PRODUCER ATTACHED TO JIGSAW FEATURE

Jigsaw Productions are proud to announce that one of the UK's leading feature film producers Julia Valentine (Moon, This is England, Wild Target) is now officially attached to our next feature film, Ties that Bind. This film has been in development with Jigsaw for the past 3 years with writer Stephen Thompson and Director Dale Corlett collaborating closely on the development of the script. Julia's production company Cacti Films and Jigsaw Productions are now in a formal co production agreement and are currently taking the film to the market and funders for finance. Director Dale Corlett is very excited about this development with the project.

"Having a producer of Julia's calibre on board this film is amazing. With credits that include some of my favourite indie films like 'This is England' and 'Moon' not to mention David Mackenzie's 'Perfect Sense' staring Ewen Mcgregor and Matt Whitecross's 'Ashes' staring Ray Winstone, I know that we are in a very safe and creative pair of hands. Its also an honour and huge credit to our film that someone with such a proven track record of producing the highest quaility of work is

 as excited about our film as we are" 

Dale is currently working closely with Julia on developing the pitch and package for the film. Watch this space for more updates.
