hello all and once again many thanks for all your support for my blog. I know there's been certain things taking a little longer than expected like the menu and the blogs other pages, I wont bore you with excuses but apoligies for taking forever. I thought I would let you know that today and this week I will be working on those pages and hopefully this time next week they will look a lot better than before. I am also considering rechanging the look of this blog again maybe in line with the other pages as I had add the pages in manually usung outside free webhost, but ill let you know later. So check out the other pages other the next week or two.
Well today is the end of the glasgow international film festival with the world premiere of LEGACY a indie thriller starring The Wire star Idris Elba as an ex black-ops soldier returning home full of redemption of a botched up operation in eastern europe and finds himself stuck in a rundown Brooklyn motel. Funnily enough the movie was mostly shot in Glasgow, Scotland simply due to the movies studio been based there, I was unable to get a press pass for the premiere, though ill try see if I can get a screener and review it. The movie was directed by nigerian born Londoner Thomas Ikimi and I this years festival has been an overall sucess. In its 6th year its sales figures have went from 6,000 to over 25,000 which is absolutely fantastic as this festival is not regarded as one of the big ones though give it a few years and the festival will breathing dow the neck of its neighbouring city (only 36 miles away) Edinburgh which is regarded as a big festival.
Overall ive been able to see some great movies on the screen or through screeners and i've been able to see scottish premiere of Gentleman's bronco, heartless also Until The Light Takes us, Kakera, Evagellion 1.0, Frozen (european premiere) Whip it, Bad Lieutenant which will be reviewed over the next week or two and you'll the reviews here and on the peoplesmovies blog.
