Peran Yang Di Mainkan Leo Regan
Regan first documented his friends life...My Friend Lanre 2024
Regan first documented his friend’s life in the 1998 film Don’t Get High on Your Own Supply. Fehintola became hooked on heroin while working on a book about a group of drug addicts. Regan caught up with him again in the 2001 film Cold Turkey, as Fehintola attempted to break his addiction by locking himself in his flat without medication. My Friend Lanre jumps two decades, to a moment when Fehintola has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. Regan never set out to document someone dying, but this is what his film becomes. Drawing from over 25 years of footage, the filmmaker presents an intensely intimate portrayal of his friendship and collaboration with Fehintola. It is charming, funny, devastating and, by its close, a bravely personal, living testament to one person’s life and work.

Scars is a recreation of a series of interviews done over about a year with Chris, a man with a violent, dangerous past who, now with wife and child, talks about his regret for the pain he has caused to his victims, how his personality was molded by his violent father, and his fears for his young son. Jason Isaacs stars as Chris, and is interviewed by Leo Regan (as himself).
Battlecentre is a large house in...Jesus Army Battlecentre 2001
Battlecentre is a large house in a rundown London suburb that opens its doors to everyone. Muggers, drug dealers and murderers have turned up here to live with families, graduates and pensioners. The only requirement is that you must start a new life and accept Jesus as your saviour. The house is owned by the Jesus Army and run by an ex-acid-dropping hippy. 'They're Christians but don't believe in religion. They live like Jesus would live; that's how they see it', says award winning director Leo Regan. This is a film about a highly intense and often-unpredictable community who set themselves apart from the world but also reveal to us some truths about the society we all live in.
