"Raindance means Raindance"

If it's Tuesday, it must be Raindance, or at least if the 22nd August then a double helping of events to launch and promote the 2019 edition of the  most independent, idiosyncratic and always-interesting film festival held in the heart of the West End of London. An early call (9.30 for 10am) to the largest auditorium inside the Vue cineplex off Leicester Square (for years Warner Bros's UK showcase as the Warner West End, home to Stanley Kubrick's feature debuts, with the maverick director often manning the projection both at the press screenings of his latest fllms) brought a couple of dozen to attend the Official Press Launch of the 27th Raindance Film Festival.
