Knight time (video)

Stop the bloody press – we have Ashley Wing’s Hard Day’s Knight to show you!

Regular readers will remember that this ‘mocumentary of epic proportions’ follows Britain’s only professional knight in shining armour. Irregular readers (boo, hiss!) better click here and here to refresh their memories.

Unfortunately, the short has been turned down by Raindance and the BBC, which [...]

French bred (video)

Two Days In Paris is released tomorrow, and to celebrate D+CFilm has an interview with director and star Julie Delpy for your delectation.

The movie has inevitably been compared to Before Sunrise and Before Sunset, but we reckon there’s also a hefty dose of Woody Allen and Godard thrown in there too (check out Delpy’s Woody-specs in [...]

Get the message

The Alliance for Climate Protection has joined forces with Current TV to launch a video message competition urging the community and government to solve the climate crisis. Yup, that should sort it.

They call these video messages ‘ecospots’ and they can be either 15, 30 or 60 seconds long.

We’re not really sure how you’re gonna end the climate crisis [...]

Look animated

There’s a chance for a local company or organisation to sponsor a prize as part of Animated Exeter 2008.

The Screen Out Loud category attracts submissions from amateur and professional animators across the South West. After being shown at the festival, selected films will go on to tour the region.

If you’re interested in finding out more, call Liz Harkman [...]

Photo Finnish

Finnish artist Eeva-Mari Haikala visits Exeter’s Spacex today for Still – her first major solo exhibition in the UK.

The show features a 16mm film, called Attempts To Be Still, in which the viewer is invited to gaze upon a woman lying on a bed, just breathing and being still. Heck, that’s a rarity in itself!

While they were [...]

Leggy bond

There’s great news for D+Cineastes in the Plymouth area. At the beginning of next month, the Arts Centre cinema will be closed for two weeks for refurbishment. About bloody time too!

Heck, the blurb even mentions those magic words: ‘generous legroom’. Not just ‘legroom’, you note - but ‘geeeenerous legroom’.

‘You want legroom? Here’s a bit. And some more. Hey, why [...]

The only way is sup

Pretend you’re that bloke from Sideways at a wine-tasting event to raise money for the Cornish Film Festival.

They’re expecting to raise £500 towards the fest, which should be a piece of proverbial when the tickets cost £30 each.

It’s gonna be held at the Wine Chapel in the Constantine area of Falmouth

A mighty wind

Hailed as ‘pulse-accelerating’ by Film Review and as a ‘first rate Korean thriller’ by Uncut, Typhoon is released today through Premier Asia as a special two-disc DVD edition.

Set against the backdrop of the tense political standoff between North and South Korea (surely not), the plot revolves around a psychotic, modern-day pirate bent on contaminating the entire Korean [...]
