A good chance to share my favorite piece of Hartley miscellany: https://youtu.be/xgA6cpPNXEk

Thanks for shining a light on Hartley - I was one of those early-90s Hartley-obsessed 20-somethings as well, and had one of those beloved TRUST VHS tapes. I will say that I remember being a bit disappointed by AMATEUR when it came out, largely because it followed his all-time masterpiece SIMPLE MEN (which is still one of my favorite films). I cannot recommend it highly enough - and there happens to be a copy on YouTube (for now): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PyTMvU0scbI
