Stephen Mayne is a film writer based in London who wasted time getting undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in politics before realising that he only wakes up sitting in a darkened room watching light flicker across the screen. Now he spends most of his time doing just that. You can follow Stephen on Twitter @finalreel.
