RIP to the great David Bordwell. A truly wonderful film scholar - one of the very best of all time. The most worthwhile blogger ever - for @ObserOnFilmArt. And a lovely man. Deepest condolences to Kristin Thompson and his family.

RIP the incredible David Bordwell. He was a mentor to me long before I got to meet him, and he was a mentor to me formally for a long time after, offering notes on things I was writing, sharing my work, and giving me counsel on all matters. A great mind, a great man.

Slapstick Festival@SlapstickFest21 Feb 2024
If you've seen us mentioned in the press, on the radio, or saw some of our guests on television over the last few months, that work was done by one person. Our press & PR person @GreenBrizzle has done a tremendous job and is such an asset to the festival! bristol247.com/culture/film/…
