Hearing about the queues for Russian borders yesterday, it popped into my head that we could screen "La Grande Illusion" - 85 years old and still as relevant as ever. What do you think? And where could we show it?
Inspired double bill @reelsteelcinema last night, exploring the seamy side of Manhattan from the comfort of @Abbeydale_PH Reminded me what's so great about community cinema. Loved it, thank you!

Knew nothing about Detroit techno until now, with Dominique White's Notes on Black Futurity playlist for her exhibition @blocprojects
See the show, listen to the music, raise your awareness.
Been having fun watching the trailers for #BFILondonFilmFestival@showroomcinema - we want to see EVERYTHING! Hmm, maybe not a couple of the famous names, though won't say who...

So excited about the Sparks Brothers film. First live band I ever saw as a kid. But @showroomcinema are your ceilings ready for the ear-splitting falsetto singing along from ageing superfans?
Renewed @showroomcinema membership and went to see Summer of Soul. It's every bit as good as they say, and so, so relevant now: "we don't care about a man going to the moon when kids are hungry here in Harlem"
We didn't get to Cannes this year, but it is very heartening to read that the film industry is alive and kicking. Also fond memories of the time we did "Cannes Not", fake palm trees and all.
Just so everyone knows, England reached the Euro finals in 1984 and 2009.
It's just the men's team that haven't done it since 1966.
