Report.
This is the second selection of entries from the BIAFF 2011 Competition. The Awards range from 3-5 stars. If used to present a Club evening the timing of the programme will have to revolve around the 58 minute length of Montague Jack. It is surrounded by an entertaining mix from documentaries to light comedies. Compilation by Val Ellis (Video Selector) Reviews by Michael Gough. The "making of" articles may provide points for discussion.
1. | RUBBLE BUBBLE Michael Gough (Sunderland) What can I possibly say to review my own film? In my own mind it started as a straightforward travel film about the Polish City of Gdansk. However my thoughts about its recent history quickly changed the tone of what I was trying to say. Four Stars, BIAFF 2011 (article on making it) (preview it online) |
