Born to be King
Director: Peter Capaldi
Year: 2014
An extra on a film set is discovered to bear a striking resemblance to the movie's leading man. Whilst standing for the star he finds himself falling in love with the leading lady.
The Great Pretender
Director: Peter Capaldi
Year: 2006
In 1938 two producers hire hell-raising Hollywood star Leslie Grangely (Ewan McGregor) to play Bonnie Prince Charlie (also McGregor) in a movie about the 18th-century Jacobite Rebellion in Scotland. Soon after, a drunk Grangely disappears and the producers are forced to find a replacment. They trick a gullible, goofy extra with an uncanny resemblance for Grangely into playing the role of Bonnie Prince Charlie, 'The Great Pretender'. <br /> <br /> A hilarious comedy and a paradox of epic proportions, The Great Pretender reconfirms Ewan McGregor's deft comic genius as he stars, doubles and extras in this riotous role-switching farce of a movie within a movie.
Strictly Sinatra
Director: Peter Capaldi
Year: 2001
The first feature for director Peter Capaldi and producer Ruth Kenley-Letts. Written by Peter Capaldi.<br /> <br /> Strictly Sinatra stars Ian Hart as Toni Cocozza, a Scottish-Italian club crooner obsessed by Frank Sinatra, who falls in with a group of local gangsters in the hope that they will make him a star. But there is a price to pay. As he is drawn by the glamour of the gangsters, in particular the Las Vegas stories of their leader Chisholm (Brian Cox), Toni begins to betray Bill (Alun Armstrong), his best friend and accompanist, and Irene (Kelly Macdonald), the local girl he loves.
