Following an actor, writer and would-be chanteuse on their solitary
quests for fame and glory, Marc Fitoussi’s La Vie d’artiste bristles
with sharp observations and unpalatable truths about creative pursuit,
artistic compromise and personal disappointment.
La Vie d’artiste concerns a singer, an actress and a writer in
pursuit of recognition. Are there any parallels with your experiences
as a filmmaker? How did you come up with this story?
I wrote it when I was not re...
LLF Vodcast: The Secret of Moonacre and Surprise Film The Wrestler
Donald Mugisha is a founding member of Ugandan film-making
collective Yes! That’s Us. Their debut feature Divizionz is a
refreshingly authentic portrait of African inner city slum life,
centred around a group of young friends striving to make it in the city
as musicians.
Donald Mugisha
Could you start by talking a bit about your film-making
collective Yes! That's Us - how you formed, how you work together, and
how you came to make this feature?
We're a guerrilla filmmak...

Steven Soderbergh, Benicio del Toro...and more of them on the red carpet at Leicester Square

Sunshine Barry and the Disco Worms is an enormously fun new animated
film from Denmark, about an earthworm who harbours a desire to escape
his dull existence and form the world's greatest disco band! We caught
up with the film's director Thomas Borch Nielson, along with
co-directors Tonni Zinck and Daniel Silwerfeldt.

Could you start by talking about the animation process used for the film? Were there any unexpected challenges?
Tonni Zinck: I was i...
The team talk to Oliver Stone and the cast of W. at The Times Gala.
The team talk to Genova director Michael Winterbottom, and the film's star Colin Firth.
Equally at home filming Death in Vegas on stage or Tom Jones for a
commercial, there isn’t much musically that Giles Borg hasn’t captured
on film. He’s won acclaim worldwide for his short films, showing at
major festivals around the globe, and now you can catch his charming
feature debut. 1 2 3 4 follows bespectacled cardigan-wearer Stevie as
he learns rock 'n' roll doesn't always come with the sex and drugs
attached…

Saturday evening saw two premiers, Sandra’s new boots (shiny, heeled, might have been a buckle) and Incendiary, Sharon Maguire’s take on Chris Cleave’s novel. The film stars Michelle Williams (with an uncanny London accent) as the Young Mother, Ewan McGregor as ambitious journalist Jasper Black and Matthew Macfadyen as chief of anti-terrorism and caravan fan, Terrance. The movie deals with the aftermath of a massive terrorist attack in London in which Williams’ husband and son are kill...
American Teen is Nanette Burstein’s look at American teens (obviously) through the eyes of the senior year at a high school in Warsaw, Indiana. Or possibly a mockumentary homage to John Hughes, if you belief the IMDB posts! What Burstein has either discovered, or cleverly edited to discover, is that those clichés you have seen in every teen movie since The Breakfast Club, are actually true. We have the Megan the popular bitch (with hidden darkness of her own), Colin the local basketball sta...
The people at the LFF want you to believe that 1234 is going to be the next big cult British movie and they might be right. It contains all the elements of cool that could catapult it to Trainspotting status; largely unknown but excellent cast, fantastic soundtrack, of the moment fashion and a rock ‘n roll plot. In fact 1234 is really a rock ‘n roll movie, in which Ian Bonar forms a band with best-mate and classic simpleton drummer, Matthew Baynton, unstable/alcoholic guitarist Kieran Bew ...
