FILMING OF STEVEN FORRESTER’S DESPERATE PURSUIT BEGINS.
The thriller short starts filming in August 15, in Hertfordshire, England.

DESPERATE PURSUIT tells the story of the hapless Debbie. After an idyllic summer's afternoon with friends, she is pursued home by a mysterious driver. Could it be that he is her jilted ex-lover out to exact some sort of pre-meditated revenge on her? Only in the last few moments does all become clear in this gripping film with a twist in the tale.

The movie is written and directed by Steven Forrester, whose extensive filmography ranges from small British productions to big Hollywood blockbusters. Forrester has worked as an editor in movies such as the Wesley Snipes film Gallowwalker, the British drama Dear Frankie, and the comedic sci-fi movie Alien Autopsy. Forrester has also worked as visual effects editor for many big budget movies, including movies in the Harry Potter series, Troy, and X-Men: The Last Stand, as well as more recently the latest James Bond – Quantum of Solace.

Desperate Pursuit features an exciting young British cast. The lead role is played by a newcomer, Jody Lee Harris. Other key roles are played by Michael Faye, Victoria Ruskin, Rebecca Holley, Bernadette Jane Vanderkar, and Duncan Malcolm. The famous radio presenter Graham Torrington has a voice cameo role.

Desperate Pursuit is due to be shot August 15-17th, 2008, in Hertfordshire, England. More details about the movie can be found from the following websites (note that some still feature the films working title: Look Out!)
