A millionaire homeowner has won his battle for compensation over damage caused during the filming of Daniel Craig movie Flashbacks Of A Fool.

Businessman Glen Haysman was awarded $140,000 (GBP85,000) from Mrs Rogers Films Ltd on Tuesday at the High Court in London.

He had hired out his $3.25 million (GBP2 million) home in Hertfordshire, southern England, to the production company behind the 2008 film, but later claimed heavy vehicles had sunk into the driveway, and ceilings and wallpaper were destroyed as the crew went 'hell for leather' filming scenes.

Following the court win, Mr Haysman said: "I have been put through so much unnecessary stress. It has been 15 months of torment. Once they told me they'd pay for any damage they couldn't have cared less." »

Daniel Craig spends lots of time practicing his moody stare in "Flashbacks of a Fool," a drama about an La actor who spends his days in a haze of booze, cocaine and three-ways with hookers.

So what's his problem? Good question. When he learns that a childhood friend has died, we go to a long flashback (thus the strangely literal title) that takes up half the movie. The Craig character has been nursing a Dark Secret since the summer he spent by the English seaside when he was 15, into glam rock and learning how to be a stud. »
