Something To Tell You

His movies My Beautiful Laundrette and Sammy and Rosie Get Laid and his novel The Buddha of Suburbia have captivated audiences and inspired artists the world over. In Something to Tell You, he travels back to those days of hedonism, activism and glorious creativity. And he explores the lives of that generation now, in a very different London.
Hanif Kureishi won the prestigious Whitbread Prize and was twice nominated for Oscars for best original screenplay (My Beautiful Laundrette and Venus, which starred Peter O'Toole). He also received the Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres. He lives in London.
