Festival climaxes with film awards  July 28 in filmThis film won the London Fringe 48 Hour Film Award 2009 July 28 in film How the judges chose their winning film  We asked the three judges to list the 10 shortlisted films in order of merit. Titles and genres were given out at random to the teams. Some combinations were, perhaps, more difficult than others. Hard to say which ones as it's mostly subjective.We felt that the judges would use their experience in making films to decide the best movies. Having three judges would iron out any large differences in backgrounds and temperament. None of the organisers were involved in the judging. And we did not know the judges beforehand. Hope this goes some way to explaining the result. We asked the three judges to list the 10 shortlisted films in order of merit. July 28 in filmTitles and genres were given out at random to the teams.

July 25 in filmLast climate change movie tonight at Shortwave Cinema 7:30 PM  End of the Line - July, 22nd Scientists predict that if we continue fishing as we are now, we will see the end of most seafood by 2048. The End of the Line chronicles the events that have helped to bring about this situation and how actions by industry and consumers are contributing to this rather dire state of affairs. However the film does not seek to strike fear into its viewers, instead it points to solutions that are simple and doable and which will ensure that we get to enjoy our favourite seafood for years to come. Age of Stupid - July, 20 Pete Postlethwaite stars as a man living alone in the devastated world of 2055, looking back at 'archive' footage from 2007 and asking: why didn't we stop climate change when we had the chance? The film weaves together 6 human stories of individuals wishing to make a difference and the difficulties they face, contrasting their stories against those who are part of the problem. The film highlights that we are at a critical point in our history, but that time has not yet run out for us to change the future. 11th Hour - July, 21st This Al Gore-style environmental warning film is narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio. It is a captivating documentary which explores the perilous state of our planet, and the means by which we can change its course. Contributing to this crucial film are noted politicians, scientists and other ambassadors for the importance of a universal ecological consciousness. more July 22 in film 10 Shortlisted entries for the 48 Hr Short Film Competition on site ..

| Times Saturday review: "It seems there is nothing not being attempted during the ambitious, two-week run of the first London Bridge Festival, a would-be attempt at the capital's version of the Edinburgh Fringe. Comedy, film, art, dance, music - you name it, it's happening. That might suggest that the quality control knob has been torn off and tossed into the Thames - happily, it hasn't. Drawing heavily on the historic locale, there will be plays at the Rose Theatre, Bankside (home to early works by Shakespeare and Marlowe), the Southwark Playhouse, and the wonderful Old Operating Theatre, a museum that does what it says on the tin, housing the oldest operating Theatre in London. It's well worth getting along to see something as well as the shows, the locations are a knockout. Various venues, London Bridge. " |
