Fest person for the job

We all know the Cornwall Film Festival is pretty rad – focussing, as it does, on Cornish filmmaking, local and national premieres, masterclasses, workshops, discussions, parties, yada yada yada.  

So, any self-respecting D+Cineastes would leap at the chance to get involved, wouldn’t they? Which is lucky cos the festival needs enthusiastic and dedicated volunteers to help assist in the [...]

Miss da Universe? (video)

Julie Taymor’s ambitious musical Across The Universe is released on Friday, and we have to say we’re intrigued.

Co-written by Dick Clement and Ian Le Frenais (famous for, as if you need reminding, TV’s Likely Lads, Porridge and Auf Wiedersehen, Pet), the flick imagines a love story in Sixties America set to the music of The Beatles. Well, [...]

Just check out the report by Olsberg|SPI called Stately Attraction – How Film and Television Programmes Promote Tourism in the UK.

Fest man (video)

We mentioned it yesterday, but London’s Raindance Film Festival is kicking off today (Tuesday) with Allan Moyle’s satanists-versus-stoners wheeze Weirdsville (click below to watch the trailer).

D+CFilm asked festival founder Elliot Grove how he came up with the whole Raindance thang. We were taking feverish notes, of course, in anticipation of D+CFree @ Two Short Nights.

What made you start Raindance?

Elliot Grove: I [...]

Patchy performance

To tie in with last week’s opening of Tarantino’s Death Proof, Nucleus Films
has released Grindhouse Trailer Classics – a two-hour DVD compilation of cheesy, sleazy and violent movie promos and trailers from the golden

Click here to get an idea of what to expect. It’s the trailer for They Call Her One Eye. That’s not very politically correct, is [...]
