Not to my knowledge. Anyone who hasn't seen it yet should check out his latest (and sadly last, RIP) film - Lucky. Doing the arthouse rounds about now I think (I saw it on a plane, so not 100% sure).

They won't get more than 31 other countries to show up at this rate... Fantastic show of solidarity from the other 170-odd.
