'The Tuxedo Warrior' was the autobiography of author, composer, and pioneering moviemaker Cliff Twemlow.
That book ended at the beginning of Cliff's prolific moviemaking period, which lasted from the late 1970s/1980s onwards until his untimely death in 1993. Many have called this the 'Golden Age of Video Cinematography'.
This book, 'Tuxedo Warriors, ' continues the story from the point where the original book ends. It is told by Brian Sterling-Vete, who is now the only person left who can tell the complete story from the time it all began to the end.
'Tuxedo Warriors' is the most complete private and professional biography of Cliff Twemlow ever written and is the autobiography of Brian Sterling-Vete during that period.
Beginning in the late 70s, Brian played a central role in the story of Cliff Twemlow's personal and professional life as the two friends traversed the globe on many previously untold adventures as guerrilla moviemakers in Iceland and the Arctic Circle, in the Mediterranean, in parts of North Africa, in a war zone, on tramp-steamer journeys across the ocean, and road trips across continents.
Cliff and his work have become better known recently because movie enthusiasts have been discovering the treasure trove of classic movie clips online. This was also helped by Dr Chris Lee and Dr Andy Willis in their excellent book 'The Lost World of CLIFF TWEMLOW: The King of Manchester Exploitation Movies' and by being taught to students in university media lectures.
However, the wider world has suddenly learned all about Cliff Twemlow after being propelled into 'cult' status by the LA-based production company Severin Films.
Severin Films has re-released Cliff's entire portfolio of films together with the stunning 90-minute documentary they produced, The 'Mancunian Man, ' which premiered on August 27th, 2023, at The Empire IMAX Cinema in Leicester Square, London, and then in the USA and Australia.
The trailer for the 'Mancunian Man' documentary can easily be found on YouTube.
The documentary was directed by the genius Jake West, and it has received rave reviews from movie critics and magazines alike.
The 'Mancunian Man' documentary contains never-before-seen footage and interviews with all the extraordinary surviving characters who were part of this unique and compelling story and were pioneers during this pivotal and innovative period in the history of world cinema.
'Tuxedo Warriors' is the only book that tells the complete story of all of Cliff Twemlow's movies, together with his true behind-the-scenes life story from 1977 until his death in 1993.
