Following the launch of short film Act of Faith (currently available to view on the Lex YouTube channel), Jimmy’s Endby Alan Moore & Mitch Jenkins is now available to watch in full at jimmysend.com.
“We’ve all been there: in the lapses after midnight, stumbling down unfamiliar gutters after one too many for the road and looking for inviting lights before they call last orders. James is trying to lose himself, but in a fractured men’s room mirror finds the eyes that have been waiting for him.

Jimmy’s End pulls back the purple drapes upon an intricate new planet of desire and mystery. We’ve all been there.
Act of Faith is the prelude to Jimmy’s End. Watch the trailer for Jimmys EndHERE and the film itself at www.jimmysend.com from 25th November…

“Defiantly avante garde, this louche and oddly sinister vignette suggests that Moore, as a film-maker, is determinedly disinterested in regurgitating his own comic-book back catalogue: we’re definitely not in Smallville any more” – The Guardian
