Interview Schemers interview with David McLean and Conor Berry Claudia Andrei Share with:A big success at this year’s Edinburgh International Film Festival, where it received its World Premiere, SCHEMERS is set in Dundee, Scotland, in the late 1970’s and is based on writer/producer/director David McLean’s early years in the fickle music biz. Film-News met David (the management genius behind such mega rock acts as Placebo) and leading star Conor Berry (who portrays the young Davie) at Edinburgh’s Grand Hotel for an informal interview to find out more. Also, the late 70’s during which the story is set was a good period for doing crazy things, and a good period for good music as well. So the people working on the project are more responsible for the look than the money really. Film-News:David and Conor, thanks for your time and best wishes for future projects and of course for SCHEMERS!
