Billy MacKinnon
A free-spirited individual who has worked as screenwriter, producer and script editor for both his brother, Gillies MacKinnon, and Jane Campion, Billy MacKinnon came into his own with the 1995 release of "Small Faces," which he produced and co-wrote with his brother. The poignant yet hearty coming of age tale of a 14-year old lad in the low-income housing projects of Glasgow in 1968, "Small Faces" won near unanimous praise and has been acknowledged as semi-autobiographical. MacKinnon and his brother had previously worked together on "Passing Glory" (1986), which served as Gillies' graduation thesis from the Glasgow School of Art.
