Notes
When Jarman was evicted from his Sloane Square flat, and forced to pay back rent, he threw "a 'removal party' which, of course he filmed, thus creating a colour coda to earlier black and white footage of life in the flat· The floors were stripped of carpet, the walls of their mirrors· Every available surface was 'redecorated' with multicoloured graffiti: 'Owing to interest tomorrow has not been canceled'· Jarman invited his friends to help themselves to whatever he had been unable to sell and urged them to make as much mayhem as was physically possible· He wanted a real 'fuck you' affair·" [p. 234· Tony Peake: "Derek Jarman, A Biography"
