Donald Munro

Donald is a child of Moviedrome who enjoys weird films, film noir, horror and science fiction (but doesn’t really care about Star Wars). He also likes some musicals (such as Annette and The Saddest Music In The World). Beyond film, he likes fine art, Art Nouveau and Italian Futurism, and has a collection of musical instruments from zithers to hand pans. He has a background in maths, science and Linux (but can talk about other things).
