Philippa Goslett

Philippa Goslett (born in 1974) is a British screenwriter. In 2000, she won the Euroscript Screen Story Competition.[1] Her first feature Little Ashes (2009) is being directed by Paul Morrison, who was nominated for an Academy Award in 1999 for his film Solomon and Gaenor.[2] Little Ashes is a film about the life and loves of artist Salvador Dalí, poet Federico García Lorca and filmmaker Luis Buñuel. It was shot in 2007, mainly in Barcelona,[3] and is a Factotum Barcelona, Aria Films, APT Films and Met Film production.[2] The title of the film is taken from the name of one of Dalí's paintings.[4]

The potentially controversial interpretation by Goslett stars Robert Pattinson as Dalí, a 21-year-old London-born actor best known to cinema audiences as Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter series.[5] Lorca is played by Spanish actor Javier Beltran, while the role of Buñuel is taken by Matthew McNulty, who was in Control, the recent biopic of Joy Division singer Ian Curtis.[3]
