//In my experience women filmmakers have different interests and ////concerns as storytellers. They tend to want to make sense of the world of feeling rather than the world of event. This results in character and ideas-driven screenplays which can be very challenging for those used to reading (and financing) more mainstream material **Robin Laing** //

=== Laing has produced: PERFECT STRANGERS(2003) by GAYLENE PRESTON review: This movie has been hanging out in the New Release section of blockbuster stores since the day it arrived on DVD around a year ago. That's because people keep re-renting it (no, not me...I bought my own copy). My praise will not do this movie justice. I have not seen Sam Neill act more convincingly in a movie. He got that mysterious stranger role down perfectly. Rachel Blake was extraordinary. You just couldn't take your eyes off either one of them (regardless of the condition they were in). This is a beautiful movie, with stunning actors, breathtaking scenery, and haunting music. While watching the movie, you'll find yourself asking yourself "what would I do?". You'll also say to yourself "I must get that soundtrack!" I highly recommend it ref Refer to IMDB for more Preston films ===
