Stoke Film Festival

Stoke's film festival, aka: 'Stoke Your Fires', gets underway tomorrow. You can find out more information here:


Due to a "disagreement" with the organisers of the festival, I will not be attending this year, despite having a major film ('The Steve Identity') in the pipeline. You can read about 'The Steve Identity' here:


A colleague of mine, local film critic David Murray (not to be confused with Dave Murray of the Cobridge Tourist Board), has also been barred from the festival due to inappropriate comments he made during the two armed sieges in Stoke earlier in the year. Read more about that here:


That said, the festival promises something for everyone. As well as homegrown fare such as the last two 'Harry Potter' films, the festival will show foreign films such as 'Captain America', and fans of subtitled films will be able to enjoy 'Gnomeo and Juliet', being shown here with subtitles.
