Oscar- and BAFTA-winning documentary Man On Wire, directed by Cornwall’s James Marsh, has come in at number 22 in the Observer Film Magazine’s Best British Films 1984-2009 poll. The list was compiled from the opinions of more than 60 experts – directors, screenwriters, actors, critics – and a few smart ‘outsiders’ (eg, novelist Jonathan Coe and [...] Crediton’s Harry Treadaway stars in Red Road director Andrea Arnold’s latest movie, Fish Tank, next month. Harry, who went to Sandford School and Crediton’s Queen Elizabeth’s Community College, appears alongside Inglourious Basterds’ Michael Fassbender and 17-year-old newcomer Katie Jarvis, who was apparently cast after being spotted arguing with her boyfriend in a train station! Holy cow – now this looks like a movie! Yes, the extended redband teaser gubbins for Scott Stewart’s Legion has hit the interweb, and it rocks. The story sees God sending a legion of avenging angels to Earth to bring about the Apocalypse – imagine him shaking a big celestial Etch-A-Sketch… The Royal Television Society is accepting submissions towards its Craft and Design Awards 2008/2009. The gongs recognise the variety of skills and processes involved in programme production – from costume design and digital effects to editing and lighting.

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that even the biggest movies are actually put together by people like us – massive film fans. One thing’s for sure, [...] Yesterday we promised you some concept art from Paignton filmmaker Ashley Wing’s new sci-fi short Fracture (nothing to do with Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling, we’re assured). Before we have a look, let’s just remind ourselves of the synopsis, shall we? On the bleak and unforgiving surface of a distant world a fragile mining base stands isolated, [...] Paignton filmmaker Ashley Wing (he of Poppies, Hard Day’s Knight, and Between The Lines fame) has got in touch to tell us about an absolutely stonking opportunity for all you talented and arty D+Cineastes out there. What is the opportunity? Here is the opportunity. (And yes, Ashley does speak in italics.) The new Aviva advert, which features Fast Show star Paul Whitehouse as a Plymouth Argyle fan, is the talk of the interweb.
