Re: Paul Kittel Documentary Sunday 28th October 2018

I would like to echo Tim's comments about Paul Kittel. I found his presentation at the AGM weekend to be both interesting and inspiring and I returned home feeling sufficiently encouraged to get back to making some personal films again, after a year or so in the doldrums. I watched Paul's programme ...

Re: Film Music

I've seen that series on the history of music for Cinema Tim and I agree that it is excellent. I'd already spotted Mark Kermode's new series so that is definitely on my "must watch" list

Re: BIAFF 2018 RESULTS

Tim's comment about there being more of a buzz at this year's BIAFF is interesting and I'd noticed this myself. I've been attending the festival since 1983 and looking back I think that one thing that helps to enhance the lively atmosphere is a good lounge area where we can all congregate for our te...

Re: BIAFF 2018 AT HARROGATE

Here's a funny thing. As you know I was one of the Saturday Projectionists so I had already seen all the films I was showing when I checked to make sure that everything was working ok. The funny thing was that I actually found myself enjoying the films better on the day. Maybe something to do with t...

Re: BIAFF 2018 RESULTS

Should be ok for me but as I'm on projection duties I might not be able to stay for long

Re: BIAFF 2018 RESULTS

Re the get together at the bar. I'm projecting on the Saturday so will need to keep a clear head but suspect I'll be in need of something restorative afterwards! You will probably find me lying in a darkened room, somewhere very quiet. As to the results, I didn't enter a personal film this year but ...

Re: THE BIAFF FESTIVAL 2017

I've just watched Howard-Smith's "Goose Sauce" on the BIAFF web-site. Brilliant farce, terrific script, great acting and razor sharp editing, especially at the end! Comedy on film is difficult enough to get right, but farce is even harder as the genre is so dependant in getting the pacing ...
