Although I am pretty excited after being in the cinema after three weeks of not being in a cinema. I went to see Ron Howard's Rush. But more on that in the Hit, Miss or Maybe post that will be coming soon, I promise. There are only three films on that list unfortunately but it will be here soon, I do promise.
Anyway, the reason why I am excited about film today is because of an announcement from BFI, yes them again, I do love BFI. The British Film Institute is launching their own BFI PLAYER, like iplayer from BBC, ITV and 4OD from channel 4 and like Curzon Cinemas OnDemand player, except the latter you have to pay for. Back to the launch; BFI are launching BFI Player this month I am excited!
Actually on 30th September the BFI turned 80! So there are/were two things to celebrate this week. The BFI was formed in 1933 after negotiations with the film industry and was registered as a private company. BFI's goal was to be a source of information on filmmaking, cinema and to be a research body for teachers and the film industry.
Here's to another 80 years! #filmforever
