RIP Duggie Fields<\/a>, seen here in 1975 courtesy of Derek Jarman’s Super-8 camera<\/a>. The occasion was an exhibition at the Kinsman-Morrison Gallery of Fields’ paintings, many of which are seen throughout the film, although the low light and poor quality of Super-8 stock doesn’t do them any favours. Fields and Jarman were both constituents of the mid-70s London art crowd known as “Them<\/a>” so it’s no surprise to see other Them faces at the gallery, notably Andrew Logan interviewing all the attendees (the film is silent, unfortunately), and an insistently bare-breasted Nell Campbell, aka Little Nell, either just before or just after her appearance in The Rocky Horror Picture Show<\/em>. This wasn’t the first or last time that Fields and Campbell had appeared before Jarman’s roaming lens, they’re both in an earlier Super-8 short, Ulla’s Fete<\/em>, and in also Jubilee<\/em>, while Fields may be found reclining in a toga during the opening scene of Sebastiane<\/em>. For a better look at Fields’ paintings, plus some comment from the man himself, there’s this recent visit to his Earl’s Court studio<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
