It\u2019s a\u00a0Frank<\/a>\u00a0special. A few weeks ago,\u00a0Banter<\/a>\u00a0was packed to the rafters for the visit of\u00a0Jon Ronson<\/a>\u00a0who talked at great length about Frank Sidebottom and the true story which inspired the forthcoming Frank film.<\/p>\n

This time around, we\u2019re delighted to welcome the film\u2019s director\u00a0Lenny Abrahamson<\/a>, actor\u00a0Domhnall Gleeson<\/a>\u00a0and music composer\u00a0Stephen Rennicks<\/a>\u00a0to Banter on Thursday May 1 to talk about all things Frank.<\/p>\n

Lenny Abrahamson,\u00a0who has form when it comes to Banter<\/a>, has previously directed such magnificent flicks as Adam and Paul, Garage and What Richard Did.<\/p>\n

Domhnall Gleeson, who appears in Frank as wannabe Jon Burroughs who finds himself out of his depth when he joins an avant-garde pop band led by the enigmatic Frank, has previously appeared in About Time, Anna Karenina, Calvary, Sensation, True Grit and many other films.<\/p>\n

Stephen Rennicks is the Dublin-based composer whose compositions for feature films include The Stag, The Pipe, Happy Ever Afters, Eden and work on all of Lenny Abrahamson\u2019s films to date.<\/p>\n
