The film was well received by the judges and they commented on how well it was made, they liked the soundtrack which added to the mood of the film and they thought it was well directed, and very professional. Well done to all involved, especially Margaret for writing such a good script, Iris, Steve, Robyn and Euan for brilliant acting, and ALL the extras from the club who gave up their time. Director Peter Warrington received the trophy from the Judges.
The title for next years film was decided by an audience vote, "A Word in your Ear". So it's back to the drawing board, with Margaret Schlesinger thinking about ideas for the script, before filming starts in the New Year. |
