IAC DISCUSSION FORUMS

"Living With Heartache" Let's have a nice discussion about the films shown at BIAFF. We also did it the previous years. The judges said the award winning films excelled in the way emotions had been displayed. That's how I understood it. I looked online and could only hear what Romy said f...

As I told you I had a chat with Werner. He has written some thoughts about his film "Thirst" in Dutch and I have tried to translate them. If I would have had more time I would have made the sentences shorter, but I hope you will be happy with the following things. I am sure there are some ...

I just had a chat with Werner. I will explain everything. But first I would like to see Manchester City (Kevin De Bruyne) playing Real Madrid (team of Courtois). See you later.

Jill is a lovely lady. Absolutely! I agree with you, Michael. A year ago I expressed my feelings in detail about my new experiences while making a film. I was sad. I remember Jill's beautiful words in her response on this forum. We fundamentally agree, Michael. I understand that you are puzzled by t...

I didn't know there was a canal in Llangollen, Dave. I checked it. Why? I organised my first school trip in 1970. A trip to Wales for my colleagues. It was unforgettable. On our tour we spent one night in the Chain Bridge Hotel in Llangollen. We had dinner in the restaurant of the hotel with a view ...

Yes, I must have made a mistake now, Dave. My memory has been shaped by the time I went to the North by the M5. Birmingham didn't look very attractive. It was also like that when I went further north and could see Glasgow from the motorway beneath me. I have been everywhere in Scotland, but I have n...

Sorry, Jill, I feel embarrrassed now! But when we were in Harrogate we visited the Yorkshire Dales. Maybe you also remember my film "Say Wensleydale Cheese, please!" When we were in Buxton we visited the Peak District. When we were in Sittingbourne we met our best English friend in the bea...

I have also found on the internet: "De prijs voor een internationaal paspoort,varieert van gemeente tot gemeente. Volwassenen betalen tussen 65 en 80 euro. Via de website van de gemeente of stad kunt u nagaan hoe veel u dient te betalen." "The price for an international passport diffe...

In Belgium we have always called our identity card (ID-cards) passports. We thought both words were synonyms. Actually that's wrong. There are idenity cards and there are passports.

Dear Dave. On the internet I have read: "Sinds 1 oktober 2021 kunt u alleen met een paspoort naar het VK reizen. Een identiteitskaart is dan niet meer geldig. " It means :"Since 1 October 2021 you can only travel to the UK with a passport. An identity-card is than no longer valid.&quo...

Three clubmates will be in Birmingham 5 stars and I won't be able to attend BIAFF! That's a pity. But I will certainly see BIAFF on zoom. I registered some days ago. Moreover three clubmates will be in Birmingham. Werner Haegeman, his son Janos Haegeman and his neighbour De Ceuster. I have given We...

What a surprise! "The Fall of Icarus" 5 stars! I didn't expect it. One English friend told me that she found it a superb film. She had laughed quite a lot. She found it a very funny story. Another one didn't seem to be enthusiastic at all. That's why my expectations were rather low. Making...

Many thanks for telling me, Dave. I've checked my spam-mail. I've sent a message to BIAFF.

Hello friends, Yes, the forum is hardly used nowadays. It has gone dormant. But thanks to Howard-Smith, Michael Slowe and some other ones it's still alive. And actually it's thanks to our man of considerable influence and prestige that the discussion about the results has started again. Actually 6 t...

I do agree with you, Tim. The trophies are for the best films. There are always grumblings after competitions (also ice dancing, gymnastics, musical performances, etc...) They always bring some life to the brewery (expression in Dutch, maybe also in English). And we must admit... sometimes most of u...
