Final Filmmaker Breakfast At LFF

Wednesday, October 31----------The London Film Festival hosted its final Filmmaker Breakfast this morning, giving attending press and distributors a chance to get up close and personal with invited film directors from all over the world. The Breakfast initiative is a welcome one, giving journalists and distribution execs a chance to meet with filmmakers in a normal, non-chaotic zone (as opposed to the Red Carpet or the madly crowded theater lobby). This is an approach that other film festivals should mimic, allowing for networking and interview opportunities in a posh setting, with good food and strong coffee.

Among the filmmakers participating this morning:
