Trivia

Jack Bond

  • Working with Jane Arden, Bond directed the award winning Separation (1967), produced The Other Side of the Underneath (1972) and co-directed Anti-Clock (1979). These three films were reissued by the British Film Institute on Blu-ray and DVD on 13 July 2009.
  • In 2010 and continuing until mid 2011, Bond directed and appeared in The Blueblack Hussar, a documentary centred on the musical comeback of Adam Ant covering the period from Ant's late 2010 "World Tour Of London", through his early 2011 period in Paris and late Spring 2011 UK national tour up until his appearance at the summer 2011 Hyde Park Hard Rock Calling festival.
  • In 1965, Bond made a documentary film with Salvador Dalí, Dali in New York. Dalí had been based in New York city, particularly the St Regis Hotel, with his wife Gala since the 1930s. The film revolves around an ongoing interview of Dali by Arden about his creative process. This all takes place against the backdrop of social life and work including putting together two exhibitions of his work and a book, as well as various performance art displays including a final scene where Dali paints alongside a flamenco duo (singer José Reyes and guitarist Manitas de Plata).
  • He was bestowed with the Raymond Roussel Society Medal in Madrid, during a momentous event at Filmoteca Española. The award was presented to Bond by the artist Joan Bofill-Amargós, president of The Raymond Roussel Society, in conjunction with a screening of Bond's film "Dalí in New York.".
  • In 1988, Bond directed the feature-length film It Couldn't Happen Here featuring Pet Shop Boys, as well as the music video for their single "Heart". Even before the film received a title, it was devised as a compilation of interrelated music videos that together would form one ongoing plot, in a manner comparable to The Line, the Cross and the Curve. However, once Bond was appointed as producer and co-writer as well as director, the project expanded into a full fledged feature film.
  • Bond had primarily worked as a director of TV documentaries, primarily on The South Bank Show during which time he covered such topics as Roald Dahl and Catherine Cookson.
  • He is best known for his work for The South Bank Show and his creative partnership with the British writer, actor and director Jane Arden (1927-1982) between 1965 and 1979.
  • In 2022, Bond was appointed honorary member of The Raymond Roussel Society.
  • Jack Bond Jwas a British film producer and director.
  • In 2010, Bond was interviewed by VBS.TV and Jamie Reynolds of the Klaxons for VBS Meets...Jack Bond. A fierce devotee of Bond and his work, during the interview Reynolds described in detail the influence of Bond on the Klaxons' music.
