EXCLUSIVE: Tom Berkeley and Ross White, the directing duo who recently won an Oscar and a BAFTA for short film An Irish Goodbye, have been signed by WME in the U.S. and Independent Talent Group in the UK.
An Irish Goodbye marked the duo’s second collaboration and went on to become the first short film in 30 years to win both an Academy Award and BAFTA Award for Best Live Action Short Film. Set in rural Northern Ireland, it follows a pair of estranged brothers who reunite following their mother’s untimely death. The film, which made history as the first Oscar winning film to star an actor with Down Syndrome, is also nominated for Best Short Film at the upcoming Irish Film & Television Awards.
Aged 27, Berkeley and White are the youngest British filmmakers ever to win an Oscar. They are now working towards their debut feature.
Berkeley and White began working as a filmmaking partnership in 2019, co-founding production company Floodlight Pictures. Their debut short, Roy, was one of ten films longlisted for the BAFTA Award for Best British Short Film.
The pair’s third and final short film, The Golden West — described as a “Celtic Western” — is due to begin festival release later this year.

Owen Wilson is back, with brushes, as the longtime host of a beloved but fading Burlington, Vermont-based PBS instructional art show. Paint from IFC Films opens on 800+ screens.
What could the future possibly hold for an artist if they have grown too comfortable with success? If they have stayed put in that snug place of glory, but the times have moved on fast without them? These are the hefty considerations at the heart of “Paint,” a slight comedy that sadly embraces neither the worthwhile questions that surround its central premise nor the story’s dark humor potential.That’s too bad, because writer-director Brit McAdams’ narrative feature debut is rooted in a genuinely fascinating subject that apparently served as an inspiration for “Paint.” McAdam’s muse is Bob Ross, a real-life American public television mainstay of the ‘80s and ‘90s. Being the host of a successful PBS show called “The Joy of Painting” during that time, Ross built a loyal audience who loved and were mesmerized by his soothing voice, and even haunted by his creative process and ease with a brush, as Ross slowly created his art in front of curious eyes, narrating it softly and philosophically.
