We're seeing @realgdt.bsky.social's Frankenstein tonight at @wshed.bsky.social which has got us wondering who the sexiest Victor Frankenstein is.

Trick question. It's always Peter Cushing.

We're crushing on Cushing.

Good upper body development on Branagh though...

Starting my week of films for this year's London Film Festival (albeit in Bristol today) with It Was Just an Accident. I've been a fan of Jafar Panahi's work for a while and it's great that he's getting so much attention now. #lff #lff2025 #londonfilmfestival @wshed.bsky.social

#nowwatching my first film of the #lff2025 line that’s come to @wshed.bsky.social It Was Just An Accident

My gradual dive into Iranian cinema continues. I’ve been amazed so far by how much amazing cinema is unknown in the west. Sure this will impress as well.

Great night at The @wshed.bsky.social Bristol at the Friends & Family screening of GAME. Lots of local crew worked on the film. I think it was 3 years since we sat down in pub and started planning it.

It’s turned out great. Go see it in cinemas from Nov 21st.

We affirm that racism, hate and intolerance has no place in our venues or our city.

We invite anyone who is in the city centre and in need of a safe space on Sunday to find shelter in our venues. You do not need to buy anything. You are welcome for as long as you need.

In solidarity.

On Sunday, an anti-immigration demo is planned in Bristol City Centre, with protesters marching from the Cenotaph to College Green.
