Film Critics from The Observer & Empire Magazine discuss the films they love
More fascinating "A Film I Love..." conversations |
|
|
Following a hugely successful launch (thank you for your support and kind comments) we are excited to announce the next three guests for "A Film I Love..." online. We're thrilled to be able to bring you conversations with three more of the UK's top film critics. Anna Smith, Simran Hans and Amon Warmann. The conversations will be available fortnightly from this Friday with booking open now for both Anna Smith and Simran Hans. | |

Anna Smith - Booksmart | Anna writes for a variety of film publications and is the host of the wonderful Girls on Film podcast (No. 1 in Stylist's Best Feminist Film Podcasts), she has chosen Olivia Wilde’s award-winning directorial feature debut BOOKSMART, and in a fascinating conversation explains why it is so much more than a teen coming-of-age comedy. As well as being hilarious. |

Please note that due to rights issues we are not able to provide the film with this conversation, as a result we have made the conversation with Anna Smith free of charge so it's a great place to start with "A Film I Love...". | | |

Simran Hans - Time | Observer film critic Simran Hans has selected the poetic documentary TIME by Garrett Bradley, a deeply personal portrait of a woman’s resilience and an intimate portrait of mass incarceration in America. Simran describes how Bradley’s masterful integration of video diary material gives the film such an unforgettable emotional power, and how the film’s rich textures give such depth to the storytelling. |

|
Amon Warmann - Whiplash | Amon Warmann, is a Film critic and contributing editor at Empire Magazine and has selected the the Oscar-winning debut feature from Damien Chazelle, WHIPLASH as his "A Film I Love..." In conversation with Cambridge Film Festival trustee Jenny Nelson he explains why the film means so much to him. |
