BAFTSS members are invited to attend '50 Years of Film Criticism: In
Conversation with Philip French' at Queen Mary University of London
As an author, journalist and broadcaster, Philip French has been at the
centre of British film culture since the early 1960s. Writing for the
Observer since 1978, he has earned a reputation as Britain’s foremost
film critic. A recently published collection of his criticism, I Found
it at the Movies: Reflections of a Cinephile, is the first of three
volumes to document his career. Queen Mary is proud to welcome him to
this event, which will look back on his own experiences and also
consider the history and future of film criticism.
Philip French will be in conversation with Jeffrey Richards, Professor
of Cultural History at Lancaster University, and the evening will be
chaired by Dr Mark Glancy, Senior Lecturer in History at Queen Mary
University of London.
A wine reception will follow the interview.
This event will take place at 5:30pm on Thursday, May 17th, in the Arts
Two building on Queen Mary's Mile End campus. Admission is free, and
tickets, along with a map offering directions to the event, are
available at:
