Pièce 12 - Typed letter from Robin Hardy

3 sheets

Shares his memories of Tony Shaffer, including his gratitude when PS offered Tony a way out of their work filming advertisements, recalls spending six months reading the entire 15 vols. of 'The Golden Bough' as part of the research for their last collaboration, 'The Wicker Man'; remembers when Tony left during the shoot PS and Paul [Giovanni] stepped in, and is pleased Paul is getting good reviews for the music, which is too often ignored because it fits seamlessly into the plot; understands Tony didn't like the film, and that Nick Rogue [recte Roeg?] would have made a more interesting film of it; thinks it the one product of Hardy Shaffer that seemed worthwhile.
