Here at The Culture Vulture we are very excited about Leeds International Film Festival. Every year chez culture vulture we are known to grab a copy of the programme with pen in hand (or you can browse it online here) and spend an enjoyable few hours working through all the amazing offerings ticking off everything we want to go see. That said it should be no surprise then, that there was many shrieks of excitment when we were invited to bring you regular blog and live twitter updates from the centre of the action throughout the festival. And if that’s not enough in the run up to the festival we will be featuring some of the films we are most looking forward to seeing, as well as exploring the offerings from the Cherry Kino and Cinema Versa sections of the programme.
First off, to whet your whistle, we are delighted to be able to offer 5 pairs of tickets to the Opening Night Film – Bright Star. Directed by Jane Campion, probably best known for The Piano, this film is a stunning depiction of the last three years in the life of poet John Keats. The film screens on Wednesday 4th November at 8.30pm in the Town Hall
