Welcome to the world of
The Pink Marble Egg.

The dark and troubled world of spies and terrorists; the murky corridors of London's Secret Intelligence Services; the British Prime Minister gets assassinated in Downing Street; a female agent; an undercover TV presenter recruited from 1960s Cambridge University; a BBC travel series about palm trees and holidays; Cannes; Morocco; Venice; Amsterdam; Munich; Paris; Tunisia and Rome… the lines between reality and fantasy get seriously crossed in this funny, entertaining thriller about pop music and sunshine, Bond, beaches and bitches.

Unlike any other movie you've ever seen, two hours of catchy tunes, fascinating lyrics, dramatic moments and ridiculous connections hook the viewer into a world of ludicrous imagination.

When it finishes, you're not quite sure what you've just seen.

The Pink Marble Egg.
A comedy of catastrophe.
An allegory for life.

Running time 114 mins approx

MUSIC in MOVIES

There's a lot of music in movies.
There's no more in The Pink Marble Egg but it's used differently.
It's used to surprise, convey messages, prompt thought patterns.
The lyrics are a key part of the script.

Instead of "setting a mood" or "provoking an atmosphere" the words and music in The Pink Marble Egg are intended to contribute to the story.

They express views on religion.
They comment on cooking shows and reality TV series.
They observe social interaction.

They even tell you there's more to life than Sun Sea Sand and Sex - although, to be frank, not much more.

They are as much a part of the tale as the dialogue.
Which is different from most others musicals and very much contrary to films which only use music to create moods..
