I think it'll be true of a lot of characters around that area, in red Road because a lot of people born around there you just don't have much of a chance in life. And I think he's a guy who has been abused as a kid by his father and he sees Clyde as a bit of a father figure. They have been in jail together  and they live together and meet the lovely April.

I've been told that it will be quite a big presence in the next film. So for the moment April is just this ghostly presence who pops in and out of the film, she is like a really sweet thing.

Cast of Red Road on the red carpet at Cannes\u003cbr/\u003eBritish film 'Red Road', the first of a three film dogma-style project has won a special jury prize at the Cannes 2006 Film Festival.\u003cbr/\u003e'Red Road' is Director, Andrea Arnold's first full length feature film, and shot on a low budget.\u003cbr/\u003e'Red Road' is the first instalment in a Zentropa-conceived, project called 'Advanced Party' that requires three different filmmakers to devise stories from the same pool of characters. \u003cbr/\u003e\"There are 3 scripts, we have only read the first one and made the first one, we don't know anything about  the other two. But we know that we are committed to playing our  characters through those 3 films,\" said Natalie Press, actor, who plays 'April' in the film.\u003cbr/\u003eSo far, 'Red Road' is the only feature to have been completed proving Arnold to be one of the more interesting and promising filmmakers to emerge from Britain in recent years.  \u003cbr/\u003e'Red Road' a gritty thriller set against dirty, grey, hope deprived Britain, meanders through a mystifying story, of Kate Dickie's (Julie) socially removed life as a CCTV operator, zooming in and out of some of Britains seediest corners, in high pixilation. \u003cbr/\u003e\"Jackie...is just a bit of a lost soul, and the things that she has experienced have left her very hollow and very empty and not waiting to be involved much directly in life, which I think is why she  gets a rapport with people through the CCTV because it's almost safe for her,\" says Dickie of her character.\u003cbr/\u003eJackie spots Clyde (Tony Curran), a recently released prisoner and a figure from her past.\u003cbr/\u003eVery gradually the audience realises Clyde has something to do Jackies husband and daughter whom she lost some years back.\u003cbr/\u003eBut these are secrets not revealed until the very end of the film.\u003cbr/\u003eAn ambiguous relationship forms between the two, first tentative, then sexual.\u003cbr/\u003eNo one is sure of Clydes past, or presence.\u003cbr/\u003e\"The are are so many, I use the word devices, that you go whoa, what is this guy? What has he done, and what he about to do, or what could he do. There was very little music in the film, incidental music, when she sees me for the first time, on the CCTV, and there's that chord that comes in and every time after that good God it was like, I did have goose bumps in my neck, it was quite chilling,\" said Curran, of his mysterious character.\u003cbr/\u003eArnold doesn't give anything away in 'Red Road', playing cleverly with audience perceptions and assumptions and leaving the roles of some characters, open.\u003cbr/\u003e'April' (Natalie Press) has a ethereal presence in the film.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Really she just gives you some clues, she's not explained, and it's not her story, but the foundations are laid for the establishment of her character.\" \u003cbr/\u003e\"I don't know if April is going to meet Stevie again, or what April's life is going to be like, and I wonder if, someone just asked me if maybe it will be time wise like before, you are going back into the past, which would be wild,\" Press predicts.\u003cbr/\u003eArnold won her Oscar last year for a short film, Wasp, a victory she memorably described as \"the dog's bollocks.\"\u003cbr/\u003eNo doubt, audiences will be eager to see the next 'Advance Party' instalments.\u003cbr/\u003eRed Road is released throughout the United Kingdom October 2006.\u003cbr/\u003eVerve Pictures Ltd  \u003cbr/\u003eKenilworth Ho Margaret St, London W1W
