The 55th BFI London Film Festival Opens Today
Over the last couple of weeks every chance I’ve had, I’ve have been dashing to an assortment of London Film Festival pre-screenings of feature films due to appear at the fest. As ever there’s a wide range on offer and the selection I’ve managed to catch so far reveals this…
So, here are my picks on the very eve on the fest of what I’ve seen, would recommend and what we are looking forward to.
