Edinburgh Film Fest is in full swing once again,and after BAFTA Cymru enjoy a full Scottish Breakfast ( not entirely dissimilar to it's Welsh, English & Irish counterparts) I am ready to attack the film festival- armed with pass and an over zealous wish list of films to view and people to meet, I'm guessing that it is realistic to expect to view only half of these.at most.
'Third Star', funded by FAW is closing EIFF and as ever committed to viewing Welsh film & talent we will be rising ridiculously early tommorrow a.m for an industry viewing. VERY much looking forward to seeing Mr.Nice on Tuesday morning and heading to watch Paul Andrew Williams' latest(London to Brighton & The Cottage) 'Cherry Tree Lane' this afternoon..reports to follow
Scottish Screen networking 'Hair of the Dog' ensued a fitting welcome yesterday evening, followed by dinner on the grassmarket..
Favourite comment of the day (in relation to Edinburgh Castle) "Isn't it amazing that it doesn't fall down" ..anon.
Two key things I had temporarily forgotten about Edinburgh;
* It is so beautiful - about 4 times a day you feel like you are walking through a film set
* There are lots of steps - entirely possible already lost 4lbs just from walking between various venus & it's only day one!
Anyhow.. enough about that and more to follow daily- mostly film related with just a tiny smattering of gastronomic input from me.
