IRELAND'S MOST NOTORIOUS FILM DIRECTOR!
Not many people have heard of David Malocco. Even fewer have heard of his feature called Virgin cowboys. But he's also known as Elio Malocco the scandalous solicitor way ahead of his time in terms of fraud! After getting barred by the Law Society he turned to filmmaking but according to the €4 book(!) I've read he was shunned by our 'prestigious' film industry and gave up. People who lead interesting lives make interesting films. That's why most Irish movies are so dull. We need more filmmakers like Malocco!
